    Question Kilted at Costco? (Bellingham, WA)

    I just had to ask...

    A week ago this past Sunday I was shopping with the family at Costco when I spotted a gentleman in a kilt (possibly Ancient Mackay or Gunn, hard to tell from a distance). He was put well together, in a casual sort of way.

    Unfortunately I did not have the opportunity to go up & ask him if he was a member of XMTS, so I thought if he is, then maybe he'll see this & give a shout out

    Just for the record: no, since I'm awaiting a new kilt and do not have another currently, I was not kilted. Maybe next time

    If that was the Costco gas station, about three weeks ago, that would've been me.

    No, it was inside Costco...besides Alan, he was too small built to be you!

    My son works at Costco in Salt Lake City and wears his kilt on occasion to work. He works at the Gas Station and has received many compliments.

    Not me this time

    I've been kilted in plenty of Costco stores, but the only one in WA was in the Tri-Cities area (I think it must have been Richland).

    Who was it? Common guys.....

    No one's fessing up

    I wish now that I'd been able to find out if he was an XMarker or not.
