    Seattle Kilted Run

    I just found out that The Great Kilted Run is being resurected in Seattle. However their promotional poster is pretty disappointing:

    If you're going to run a kilted event, at least know what a KILT IS!!

    I have to agree. what is that, a guy attending a girls school that requires a uniform?

    really really bad, the ad agency needs a swift kick in the p@%ts.

    You'd think that an agency which promotes a kilted event would actually know what a kilt is

    Heh, doesn't even look like a guy in a kilt. Looks like a pic of a schoolgirl from maybe Forest Ridge High School, or one of the other catholic schools from the area.

    Ok the poster is bad

    maybe it will attract a few lassies who I can follow, the old ticker might give out trying to keep in eyesight but what a way to go

    I am game for the walk, running days are over.

    Let's get behind it and show them HOW MEN wear tartan!!!

    I'm down! I think that us WACKOS should show up en masse. Maybe a t-shirt is in order?

    If that is a guy he is in a minikilt with the pleats in front----probably a private schoolgirl in her miniskirt uniform that they pulled from some photofile. Probably couldn't find a decent picture of a guy in a kilt with a running theme---not sure that I could if I went looking.

    I would love to attend but I will unfortunately be stuck traipsing around gay Paris with the wife and boy, and probably NOT kilted. They probably don't even have decent Scotch in France.
