Great show and the crabs were delicious

The show was fun. The crab was delicious, but it would've been easier to eat if we'd had the appropriate crab forks. It was hard to get the normal size forks to get out the crab meat other than that everything was fine and lots of fun.

Cheeky show, but the lumberjacks are impressive and it's fun to cheer. Crab fest included salad and dessert, but the crab is where it's at! Be prepared to crack it yourself. Plenty to go around
