I have to say, from the brief glimpse they give on the
commercial, it looks like the garb is pretty well
done, and the blows are landing solid!  It does, now
that you mention it, look like it could have been done
at a vineyard...or at least someplace with lush
vegetation in the background.  Hard to tell from just
a brief look...

You know, to be honest...when I think of the SCA,
there are two places I don't really imagine having any
active participants... New York and Nebraska.  It's
actually quite refreshing to hear that not only does
Nebraska have participants, but *active* participants,
as well.  Good for Nebraska!

Of course, I'm not so sure about New York...
