Why should it matter if I had my hands up or not? If you've ever ridden anything with me, you'd know that I rarely put my hands up. Plus, the directors said that we should be riding Goliath for the "first time" each of our six times riding, so my limited acting experience (4th grade play) told me to keep my hands down and scream a lot, something else I rarely do on a ride.
To be honest, I take offense to the "poser" remark. Am I a poser because I choose to keep my hands down?? Well, I guess everyone who attended this year's Stark Raven Mad are as well.
To answer the other question, no I wasn't in the B&M shirt (if you haven't figured it out by now).
