Sunday February 19th the Portland Reavers will be having a practice at Maine Warrior Gym from 1215-330! All you need is $10 for gym cost, and groin protection! We practice in MMA gear so you don’t have to drop thousands on armor right away, plus longevity for one’s armor and own body! We compete in a sport called Buhurt! Come check us out! Any questions feel free to ask or check out some of our pages!
Reavers? Is this a Firefly reference?
No, it comes from old English word Reiver meaning River Pirate or Plundering Raid.
Checked your page for videos of this buhart... highly disappointed. Especially when there was a celebs camel toe...
Are there any groups like this that do, you know...actual combat? Meaning that they at least make it rough enough to make it feel like something is actually at stake, as opposed to just playing dress-up?
Serious question, I'm genuinely quite curious.
We do. This is a full contact sport with blunted steel weapons in steel armor. This isn’t dress up.
Ok, I'm watching some videos now and this actually looks kinda badass, albeit in the nerdiest way possible. I would go watch something like this.
Fuck yeah. I'm too far and too old (and too poorly insured...) to participate, but I would have been all in twenty years ago. Best of luck to you!
I'm a bit fatter than my full armor days, but I'll have a go!
Can I just show up and watch? This sounds gnarly
Just take a walk down Preble St guy. Maybe see you thayuh
Unfortunately space is limited at practice. But keep an eye out on our social medias for events! Our lineup starts once winter ends!
Hope to see you there!

You absolutely should post that schedule on Reddit once it's decided. Folks will attend!
Man, I kinda need this kind of poster for my DND campaign…
Lol…they finally found a gym near Portland. That was getting a tad embarrassing to be honest.
What are you even saying homie
Not really! Prices are higher near cities and as a new club we don’t want to pawn those costs off to our members. We practice where we can afford it. Thanks for your input tho. Come out to practice!
Take a look at his profile. I was hoping to see some battles, but saw Liz Olson's underwear. How am I getting down votes for that?!
Would love to see if my 3 years of Blade and Sorcery translates lol.
That’s an understandable reasoning…I just found it funny that you were the Portland Reavers, but weren’t in Portland. Of course if you’d been the Maine reavers I wouldn’t have thought where you trained or were based was odd at all (assuming you were in maine of course).
Its like all sports teams! Most dont practice in the actual city they are named for!

Its not embarrassing, you just want to share your shame. Maybe be nicer to strangers
