A Funny Occurence

**souzaphone711** · 10th November 06, 12:48 PM

Currently at my high school it is Senior Spirit week leading up to the Senior Night football game and I had thought that there might be the possibility of a senior wearing a kilt. Interestingly enough, today was the last day and the theme was School Spirit. I saw a senior, in a tartan kilt and had to stop and say something to him in passing between classes. Only when I reached my next class did I realize, He was wearing it backwards!!! I did end up seeing this uneducated kiltie later on in the day and managed to set him straight. He did say when I told him though that he seriously thought he was wearing it correctly. He even tried to argue with me. He did finally consent but it was, to say the least, entertaining to see someone wearing a kilt backwards in person. With recent threads on things like this that I have seen, I thought I should share it and give you all a good laugh.

I really don't understand how people manage to get it so wrong!

And how could you not try to save the poor fellow from further embarrassment.

A honorable deed by a fellow kilt wearer and a Dune fan.

He must have thought until you put him right that you were wearing your kilt back to front.

I wonder if others noticed he was wearing it back to front

good to see you enjoy wearing your kilt to school, more guys should do this and probably want to as the kilt provides a better alterative.
I don't know if you recall the student last year in the USA who wore his kilt at the senior prom and the head of the school sent him home because he considered the boy wrongly dressed, this made headlines in the Scottish media. The Head teacher had to eventually apologise and allow the boy to wear his kilt at future events.
just wondrering if you experienced any thing like that?
