A Kilt Marketing Idea

Although it's not really celtic themed, the Mad Dog Pub on the Riverwalk in San Antonio does have kilted staff.

Good gooogly moogly...why don't I live in San Antonio??

Good example. What do you suppose the revenues would be at the Mad Dog if the staff weren't kilted? Bet kilts make a positive difference in cash flow.

Yes but if those three drop those kilts the profits will skyrocket!

I lol'd...

Anyhoo, how do you go about finding Celtic themed business? Other than just going to them...? (Not meaning to hijack)

We had a Scottish pub near us in Montana where they had live celtic music every week. But I don't know of any in east Tennessee.

Does anyone know of any Scottish or Irish pubs in east Tennessee?--Please!!!

Next time you go to the pub could you point out to them that they have the British flag upside down. When flown on a flag pole the broad white band should be upwards nearest the flag pole. When hung as in the picture the broad white band should be to the right at the top.

I can understand how people don't notice the flag

We have a couple celtic themed pubs out here... we made kilts for 1 pub's entire staff (Braveheart's pub in Hellertown PA) and will HOPEFULLY be making more kilts for Molly MacGuires pub (1 block from our shop) when they open in a couple months. I honestly think it's a GREAT idea and a great way to "set yourself apart" from other pubs. The main barrier to entry for most pubs is the cost of kilts and the turnover in staff.

Four Sons Brewpub in Titusville, PA had a fully kilted staff when I visited a few years ago. Great food and great beer but I understand they closed up the end of last year hopefully to re-open with new owners.
