    Never been...but my wife and I are registered to throw in the heavy athletics there this year. I've signed up to be part of the world record caber toss on Freemont street the Friday night before the festival too. Should be a fun weekend!

    I haven't been, but I know Jacob D. and Jay L., the current and past athletic directors, and I know they both work hard to put on a good show. I would suspect that there will be several X Markers in attendance.

    I'll be there with The LA Scots.

    Playing both days at the Games at Floyd Lamb Park.

    Usually they have all the pipe bands march down Fremont Street on Saturday around 6pm as I recall. After that the LA Scots Grade One usually performs on one of the Fremont Street stages, and there's a "kitchenpiping" contest in one of the bars later in the evening. So, stuff going all on Fremont Street on Saturday evening anyhow, if you don't make it out to the Games.

    By the way if you want to see photos of the Vegas Games, you can look in the "show us your photos" forum and see the large number of photos I've posted over the years. I'll bet if you search the forum using the keyword "vegas" you'll see those threads.

    I attended for the first time this year. Spent A LOT of time in the Tasting Tent. I look forward to going next year in full kilt dress.
