Quien Sabe? The story I heard (I'm sure someone can tell it better) was that there were some EMTs working a highland games and they grabbed a tablecloth to fashion into a makeshift kilt and it stuck. Forget the name of the guy wearing it, was part of the rabble for a while. Think he was a medic and that's why he wore it.
Maybe someone has more information? But don't mean to hijack the thread.
Many thanks...sorry to have the original post highjacked, but hey, interesting stuff.
