Scots
need a diversion besides war, women, and wine. That is where the highland games come
into play. The games at Excalibur were a riot to watch thanks to the hilarious
personalities of the athletes involved. Notice I didn't laugh when I said the word
athlete. Throwing a caber isn't a marathon, but it looks hard enough. There
was an amateur event, but I didn't know about it in time to participate. Could have
been fun, but I think I might have put something on under the kilt for that. |
