One of the few activities I enjoy that I've found that the kilt doesn't work for me with is bowling, I generally wear a cool bowling shirt and either jeans or dockers for it. Last weekend we went to a charity bowling deal, and because it was 100 degrees out, instead of jeans I wore some khaki cargo shorts my wife bought me to wear at work. I don't think I have ever worn them other than at work, I think they are too rumpled and unkempt looking.
Anyway, as I was sitting around between frames watching folks bowl, I realized about 90% of the men and women there were wearing the same kind of pants! So we were all dressed the same, and my cool bowling shirt notwithstanding, looked equally crappy in my opinion.
So I pledge to never wear those shorts in public again!
