My son has a Kilt. He is officially a Festy. (Festy: a person who gets so into the Renaissance Festival they attend regularly in full costume.)
I am sure somewhere in the mix of heritages that represent the mutts that are John and I someone was Scottish and wore this particular tartan.
And today, as he is every weekend during August and September, he is out at the fest wearing this costume while yelling at people to buy stuff.
I am so proud.
The tartan (Yes I looked it up) is the official tartan of one of the UK's military division, the Black Watch (Royal Highlander's Division). The stuff in parentheses had changed a couple times according to the article but it was all generally that.
