    The only skit that I found uniquely funny involving the bagpipes was on Friends when Ross decided he wanted to play the pipes for his sister and Chandler at their wedding. He was auditioning for them...badly...as you would expect. But, it wasn't his playing that I thought was so funny because that was an expected cliche - it was Phoebe trying to sing along with them that had me rolling.

    Its tough to see him abuse those pipes. I think that the diners were embarrassed by it.
    But I did like the hand out at the end.

    HAHAHA!! It was like watching a train wreck. You know what's going to happen but keep watching anyway.

    That's a pretty good put on. I liked the flashes on the front of the shins. The only thing missing is Jay Leno.

    You just know there's a cow somewhere going "Mamma?" (bagpiper joke)

    But honestly, if he'de just tapped his bag in instead of blowing like a madman, he could have at least made a cool HUUUMMM with the drones instead of doing...that.

    It's under the wrong arm. lol
