I've been reading a lot of Rendezvous rules in preparation for going to my first Rendezvous.

I noticed a lot of Rendezvous events specify that greased patches are not permitted. Only water based lubes are permitted.

WTF?
 
This is likely to prevent the possibility of fire in fire-prone areas. Greased patches are prohibited at a Rendezvous in southern California that I have attended for years. Having seen a smoldering greased patch start to ignite dry grass in front of the firing line, as well as a forest fire in the area adjacent to the range (started in a campground over a mile away), I certainly see the value of such a rule.
