Methinks, Daughter, I Have Lost Our Way to the Renaissance Faire

On one of our first afternoons in Antigua, we ran into this guy riding around and around the central park on a horse, distributing invitations to a street festival or play or something (we didn't go).
The whole time we were in Antigua, there were always lots of people in handing out fliers and coupons of various sorts to the tourists, and after awhile we began ignoring them (or saying "No, gracias") as steadfastly as we did the many street vendors and shoeshine guys. But when someone looking like he just came from playing Polonius trots up to you on a horse and hands you a piece of paper, you take it.
