Kilted up for a day at Churchill Downs (site of the Kentucky Derby) for the International Breeder's Cup Race Series and got entered into the men's division of a fashion show, male and female winners each taking home $5000 for their efforts. Got photoed by a dozen or so reporters, ESPN cameramen, and local news, as well as photo ops with head judge Bo Derek (of the movie "10" fame), and getting stopped dozens of time for photos with other race fans. The Power of the Kilt.

Unfortunately took second place in men's division (I believe that was a "place" in horse parlance) but still got the wife a $100 gift card to a local high end clothiers store.

Got cold enough to see your breath for most of the day and evening, but even kilted the only thing that got cold on me was my hands, mostly because of the wind. My coldest day in a kilt and I was otherwise quite cozy in a 16 oz tank, diced hose, tweed argyll, and balmoral.
