White Mountains are very friendly to the kilted

[Burly Brute]

As some of you may know, a few months ago I talked my groomsmen into purchasing a few SWK Thrifty’s for a bachelor party weekend. Well, last weekend was that weekend, and might I say what a weekend indeed.

Living in Phoenix, I am not that accustomed to having people so freely approach me and discuss what I am wearing; however, that was a whole other story in Pinetop, Arizona. Everywhere we went (there were 5 of us total, all big guys, all kilted) people asked us our heritage, if we were some sort of entertainment, or what we were wearing. We even were asked for a group picture at the infamous Walmart. A couple of my cousins did not really appreciate the attention, but I was more than obliged.

One funny thing I noticed was that it seemed whenever we were wearing our kilts everyone we came in contact with was either Scottish or Irish.
All in all an awesome trip, and I think I have made 4 other kilt lovers.

(P.S. There are no pics as it was a bachelor party, and pictures are not part of our tradition )

Sounds like a great weekend. You are a true kilt evangelist.

What he said. We are all moved by your willingness to travel into the far lands to witness. And taking a group of disciples and converts.......well done.

Sounds like a great weekend, and good luck to you on the upcoming nuptials.

One question though...which one of you spent the weekend on the roof of the hotel???

[Burly Brute]

Well, the trick is just getting them in one, then the kilt does the rest!

And we were up at a cabin, no hotels, but lots of extreme ladder golf and horseshoes!

Sound like great times. I hope some of those converts were your own crew.

Well, they all own one now, so they are at least on their way!
