A few years ago, Rufus, Freelander and myslef were in the chat room (long gone now) and Freelander started talking about the new season of the Sporranos that he had been watching. This was about the same time Freelander sporrans was starting up, so Rufus and I got a huge laugh at David's expense and immediately change dour names to Rufus Sporrano and Colin Sporrano without explaination to the rest of the forum.

To our suprise others were curious and followed suit by adding Sporrano to their names. Rufus, Todd, and others decided to remove the name after a few weeks and hoped that people would leave the Sporrano name for David and Sten Rune with this fledgling business, but the name has stuck for a few members that were around at that time.

Hank was still working on shirts at that time, so he made a limited run of Sporrano shirts.

An inside joke gone array

Great pics Al. I looks like a fun trip.
