Tony,

I visited the St. Louis Zoo with my family this last weekend, and at the ostrich exhibit, I saw something that made me immediately think of you!!

 

[Haggises]

Scottish National Tartan

(or possibly Russell - they look similar at a distance)

Well at least that chap's kilt can double as part of a shelter half at that size. Kilts really are cool.

Cheers, Todd

I need some pictures of me in my Blackwatch kilt. Might even get a black and white Sport Kilt soon too. If I was allowed to wear them at work I would.

I did travel I-55. My shoes probably could have used a pit stop at Hwy 32.

my dad wears kilts regularly. he's really into these Utili-kilts khaki things. Pretty cool i guess. The ladies love to comment on it.

Be not disparaging of one's national dress or I'll have to belittle yours.
And there's not much blue jeans you can really insult.

I think he was referring more to the person not his dress ahhh.... skirt.... umm... kilt!

Truth be told, I was standing right next to the man regarding his rather unkempt appearance before even noticing his attire. When I did notice, my first thought was "That must be what Haggises would look like if he skipped a shave!"

 

[MrMurphy]

I have worn kilts.

And I looked far better than that umm......guy.

If you're going to wear someone's national dress, look the part, not like you were on a five day binge, beaten over the head, assaulted by a herd of gophers and hit by a car, then woke up and found yourself in the zoo.
