Blog: Get Yer Erse Tae Th' Haggis Hurl

I don't know what it's like where you are, but here in Baltimore, warm weather brings a sudden bloom of ethnic festivals: Polish, Latino, Ukrainian, Italian, Russian, you name it. And while such festivals are a nice diversion, they generally don't represent a sports or fitness opportunity - at least not for those who come to be spectators. Last I checked, funnel cake, which seems to be required by law in order to have a festival, doesn't fall into the category of health food. And there's not much cardio involved in going from vendor to vendor to do souvenir shopping.

But the other day, I got a "save the date" e-mail advertising one state's Highland Games. Ever heard of these? They're not just about bagpipes and drums. They're more along the lines of living history, because they keep alive the games that are indigenous to Scotland, and that once were used to give clans bragging rights at their annual festivals.
