    Saw a Kilt in KC

    So I was at Sam's club and I saw, for the first time, a kilted breathren!
    The Sam's club was outside of Kansas City in Independence, MO. The town that President Truman was from (remember him?). What a shocker, it wasn't at a recen festival or the Highland games. He had on a safron kilt and a tweed flat top hat. I was astounded! It was a great sight and next time I might even have the knowall to say something besides hello.

    Wow, that's got to be near as rare as another Kiltie in Des Moines. I do know that there are a few, but I haven't figured out where to find them except online, and only on other that way.

    Simple -- look at:

    And check the coming events page!

    I'm hoping (touch wood) that we'll take the new wee bairn to Iowa later this summer to meet the "kith & kin", so perhaps a kilt night at the Court Ave. Brewing Co. would be in order? :mrgreen:

    Ron, Welcome to XMarks. Great that you and Chattan ran into each other kilted. I'm east of you guys over in Jeff City. I've worn a kilt daily for going on 3 years and have yet to run into another man wearing a kilt.

    Other than at the odd game, I've run into very few fellow kilt wearers, but when I do, I always try to find time to have a short chat.
