Friendships formed or grown at Rumpus are innumerable. e annual festival has even produced nuptials and eventually children. Rumpus XIII, just this past winter, was another raucous, satisfying affair. Guests still counted beyond one hundred, but it's clear that we are parading through the event's twilight.
