30 Plus Kilted Rugby Players invade Chicago's Northside!

[McFarkus]

I was the guest of the Chicago Condors and Chicago Frogs, two local rugby clubs for a kilted pub crawl on Chicago's North Side. Close to 40 kilted guys attended - more than I've seen outside the Highland Games. I made it through three pubs before I had to retire from the lists. If I had continued, I would have been literally crawling. It was a rowdy bunch - I had a blast, but couldn't quite keep up with them to the end of the crawl.

Here's a link to the rugby club's website

The lasses were quite intrigued



Not me - It was HIM!!






Here I am with Mike from Birmingham, England, "crawling" between pubs


The crowd was getting rowdy - the songs they were singing were NOT family-friendly.


The ladies wanted pictures


Here I am with a few of the lads, just before bowing out (better than passing out)


The Condors and Frogs continued partying into the wee hours of the night
