Now I know why It was illegal to wear Tartan….. I’d say bring that law back, except my hubby looks fab in his kilt. And you should see the size of his sporran (wink, nod)
They should’ve had one posing with the stone on her shoulder.
And um, women don’t wear balmorals…
And what is the deal with those capes??? They could’ve at least tried a bit harder and donned a plaid. Except I’m pretty sure Scottish women didn’t wear them… but that’s not stopping these girls anyway, so whateva.
Wee 3 lass’s of Scotland are, bearing plaids we traverse afar . . . there is like 6 kinds of plaid, I bet there’s not a bolt of the stuff left at Wal-Mart in the county where they live!
I have a sudden hankerin’ for a big dish of Haggis – also known as the traditional Scottish meal of sheep’s organs minced with oatmeal, onion and suet, and then roasted in the stomach of the animal.

That’s a whole lot of differnt plaids going on…certainly not Scottish! Maybe they were trying to say “I’m a little of this and a little of that”? Nice rock!
Not if you have *no clue* what you’re putting on. You might end up wearing Campbell (the tartan of the skirt the seated girl is wearing) with MacDonald.
I went to an SCA event one time and half the people there had fake kilts and woad on their faces. It was close to the saddest thing I’ve ever seen.

BWAAAAAAAHAAAAAAHAAAAA! I have had photos taken at the woollen mill next to the Edinburgh Castle twice! Once with my cousin. He looked fantastic but when one of my aunts saw the picture (I was wearing the same dress as the girl that is holding the bagpipes) she said “Just say no to plaid, Laurie!” Most recently my husband and I went back there and had our picture taken. Again, plaid does me no favors but it was so much FUN!

Bad plaid…that’s about all I can add…heeheeeee
I think the one on the bottom in front is kind of sexy. Even in the tartan!
Umm…thanks?? lol Your comments have all been a blast to read. My friends and I were shocked to see this photo on here, but loved remembering that day!
Wee 3 lass’s of Scotland are, bearing plaids we traverse afar . . . there is like 6 kinds of plaid, I bet there’s not a bolt of the stuff left at Wal-Mart in the county where they live!
I’m hearing the sound track of “Brigadoon” ringing in my ears. “Go home, go home, go home with bonnie Jean…..”
That’s a heckuva lotta fabric. You could dress a lot of windows (or an entire cast of that Scottish play!)
Wow! I think these ladies look wonderful! The one in the front is kind of cute!
Erin …. are YOU the one in front? Is your (tartan) cover blown now?
The Tartan Tarts, a bagpipe/claymore trio from Medina, Ohio, will be performing tonight at 8. Wear your clan plaid and get in free!
PLAID IS A COLOR!!! ahhahaha
I have a sudden hankerin’ for a big dish of Haggis – also known as the traditional Scottish meal of sheep’s organs minced with oatmeal, onion and suet, and then roasted in the stomach of the animal.
To quote Mike Myers, “All Scottish cuisine is based on a dare.”
And washed down with a shot of scotch whiskey.
And are ye’ wonderin’ why we serve the whiskey before the Haggis??
Enough whiskey, those outfits might coordinate….naaaaah.
Cuuuuuute!
If it tain’t Scottish, it’s crap. Now put up yer dukes.
Do you have any leprechans?
Any what?
Any leprechans.
Lass, leprechans are not from Scotland, their from IRELAND!! And if it’s not Scottish, it’s CRRRRRRAAAAAPPPPP!
That’s not a rock it’s a large potato.
Nah it’s haggis!
Best caption on a photo EVER!
oh dear it’s Brigadoon :S
I think i see these people with shields and big foamy swords at the park every tuesday night, re-enacting scenes from Braveheart…
Piper down! We have a piper down!
If you want my body and you think I am sexy…..Hilarious.
DEAD sexy!
S. A. Tur. Day. Night!!!!
members of Clan McMarney gather in their regulation tartans.
I just have one question: What are they looking at?
Nessie!
Scotch on the Rocks!
I thought it was a cast picture from Brigadoon.
Something tells me that door gets a lot of action. That rock has beaten up the wall.
oh i thought i saw loch ness , but it was that door handle ..
the wee lassies look abit cross bred with all the tartans
“They can take our lives, but they can never take our awkwardness!”!
LOLOL!! fabulous.
The rock and the door are crackin’ me up!

” In the end, there can be only one.”
I never thought that he was referring to tartans.
One tartan to rule them all.
Duncan, if forced to wear the Tartan of my husband’s Scotish clan, then a quick beheading would be merciful.
P.S. Who said Scot’s have no sense of humor, they invented bagpipes and kilts… It’s just that it’s a private joke among kinsmen…
“FREEDOM!”
Seriously, no one said this yet?
Ach. It would have been, “Saoirse!!!” that they bellowed out, now. Highlanders not speakin English, like and saoirse being the Scots word for freedom.
And dat snap is makin me granny roll over in er wee grave.
The flowers shooting out of the side of mom’s head are killing me.
“Heeed! Pants! Nooow!”
Hahahahaha!!! Best comment ever!
“Go! Cry ya’ self to sleep on yer massive pillow!”
Its got its own weather system
“I’m not kidding. It’s like an orange on a toothpick. “
That’s a whole lot of differnt plaids going on…certainly not Scottish! Maybe they were trying to say “I’m a little of this and a little of that”? Nice rock!
Scottish Heintz 57? Mutt Scottish? or Mutton, but Scottish?
Is it ironic that i watched Braveheart last night, or a sign i should never dress up like that?
Not if you have *no clue* what you’re putting on. You might end up wearing Campbell (the tartan of the skirt the seated girl is wearing) with MacDonald.

My favorite color is plaid but this is taking it way too far. The rock holding the door is so funny. And that is a really big sword.
plaid is a color?????
ITS NOT PLAID!!!!!!!!
TARTAN!!!!!
FFS!!
my favorite flavor is blue
Lol!
LOL!! Thanks for that one.
It’s not just a colour…It’s a lifestyle
My favorite pattern is cinnamon!
I love lamp!

What if the pirrrrrrate was scottish????
People would just think the pirate was coughing up a hairball
ROTFLMAO
Ummm, aren’t their tartans supposed to match if they’re family?
They don’t look like family to me….maybe rival clans?!
no disrespect intended… but I misread “rival clans” as “rival clowns”… I’m just sayin’
I think rival “clowns” kind of works!
If my bagpipes were being held that way, I’d have a fit.
Hell, if my bagpipe drones were tuned that LOW ……… Everyone would be running for the hills, rock on the door or no.
That’s more tartan on 3 women than I’ve seen at whole Highland Games. And that Claymore … Oi.
“That’s more tartan on 3 women than I’ve seen at whole Highland Games.”
Bwahaha! No kidding.
bravehearts can’t be broken
FTW.
It’s stuff like this that makes me tell people I’m French.
bwahahahahahaaa BEST COMMENT.
Could ya crush a man with that rock? Y’know, when it matters?
I could crush that door!
Baahahahahaahahahhaaaahahhahaaa!!!!
BWAAAAAAAHAAAAAAHAAAAA! I have had photos taken at the woollen mill next to the Edinburgh Castle twice! Once with my cousin.

I thought the one holding the bagpipes is a boy. My bad…thanks for clearing that up. Note to self…don’t visit the woolen mill in Edinburgh…ever…
Clash of the Tartans!
WIN!
THAT’S funny!
THIS!
BEST!
You rock!
As my daughter says, “ULTRA TOTAL WIN IN LIFE”
Niiiiiice
Perfect!
I’d say “You rock” but well, you know, the rock by the door…….
epic lol
Yes, that’s a big FTW.
I’m not sure that mixing that many tartans is allowed by the Scottish Tartan Society. *Awkard* indeed!
OMGosh, the door! That is so funny!
really funny!
The definition of a gentleman: Someone who can play the bagpipes but chooses not to.
The plaid! My eyes!
PLAID!?!?
How VERY dare you!!
These people are really confused about their clan! They have WAY too many tartans going on. Love the fake stream.
I really like the door on the right into the fake stream.
Some of those aren’t even tartan. The girl seated looks like she’s wearing a Christmas-pattern bodice.
Certainly they are not “regulation” tartans!
Obviously, there have been a LOT of “cross-clan” mingling of the genes.
too funny!
LOL! I was thinking the exact same thing.
Actually, this is the most ‘unathentic’ Scottish attire I’ve ever seen.
Exactly what I was thinking. This is absolutely wretched!!
