It’s cheaper, it’s better, and it doesn’t line Peter Carroll’s pockets.
Ohio Renaissance Festival Discount Tickets at Kroger
Kroger Co. is an official sponsor of the Ohio Renaissance Festival Inc. Discount coupons for the festival are available at many of their grocery stores. A quick conversation with Kroger’s employees yields information that Kroger Inc. is a union shop. Kroger Co. employees are members of the UFCW union. Why then would it sponsor the Ohio Renaissance Festival, which pays not only below union wages but also below minimum wages? A few of these employees were so outraged by the news that they pledged to speak to their Union Representative in an effort to help employees of the Ohio Renaissance Festival. Why then would Kroger Co. knowingly put their name on an event, which seems to be in such clear violation of their union policies (not to mention law and decency)?
Property Tax Fraud ?
Are the rich exempt from Property Tax?
If you have participated or attended the Ohio Renaissance Festival for any number of years, chances are you’ve noticed new buildings and improvements just about every year. In most situations, these new buildings and improvements to the property would be recorded with the County Auditor for the purpose of assessing property tax amounts. That property tax would be collected and used to fund the local schools.
Pedophiles and Cover Ups
If you saw a man dressed as a clown and calling himself “Toy” these past years, you might be surprised to learn he was not a member of cast or otherwise employed by the Ohio Renaissance Festival. So says Rebecca H in her blog on March 25, 2008.
Less Entertainment / More Merchants
More merchants & less entertainment = More rent to ORF Inc. and less expenses.
According to a comment by Qstvnurp33, a few related things have changed in the entertainment department this year at the Ohio Renaissance Festival:

Despite containing what I continue to believe is 100% accurate information, I have replaced the original story posted here out of respect for a friend named James. Still, I am replacing it with a story of equal importance incorporating elements from the first and other stories.
Change in Management
Was there a “change in management” at the Ohio Renaissance Festival this year? Kyle Meadows, the very talented dulcimer player whose been there for 18 years thinks so. In fact, he thinks this might be his last year because as of August 5th, he hasn’t heard from them about this season.
ORF Inc. might owe you $2,343.60
Dear Street Cast of the Ohio Renaissance Festival:
Demand the following be investigated by Kimberly A. Zurz, Director, Ohio Department of Commerce whose email address is: Directorsoffice@com.state.oh.us Anyone who believes in minimum wage laws should do the same.
