Here's a half price deal on weekend passes. (Valid for any one Saturday and any one Sunday, don't need to be consecutive.) http://www.voicedailydeals.com/r/17-for-a-weekend-pass-to-the-texas-renaissance-festival-reg-35 Click the link, click REGISTER at the upper right to set up an account. It'll take you back to the deal page. Then click buy now. Maybe some of us can pick a weekend and go together. Primitive camping is $20 for noon Friday to noon Monday. Reading through the site the camping sounds almost as fun as the festival. The deal countdown shows about 53 hours until it goes away. Buy as many as you like (unless they run out) if you're a regular at the festival. If we go together we have to avoid T@P weekend and the 1st weekend in November (my family reunion weekend). G2
