Fun at the Gas Station!
So I'm standing there at Costco pumping gas on my way to work this am - wearing pants (yes pants  ), heavy coat, and my balmoral. The attendant walks over and says "nice hat" I say "thanks" he says "I don't have one yet, but I just got my kilt a few days ago! While we're talking about kilts, tartans, and the usual stuff - another guy walks over and says "did I hear you guys talking about your kilts?" Sure enough - three guys standing at the gas pumps on their way to work find out they have something in common! Not bad for a small north Idaho town. As we parted, we decided we'd all be kilted tomorrow - for sure.
What a great way to start my day!

Phil, that is great! I wish I could have an experience like that to start my day.

Excellent story! I'll bet all three of you walked away from that impromptu meeting thinking "wow, I didn't think anyone else here wore a kilt"! :smile:

Is there a mathmetician here who could calculate the odds of that? That's bizzare!

I've stopped at many gas stations while wearing a kilt and never had an encounter like that. Maybe I'm just not trying hard enough.
