    I live here in Sanford NC and I am the only person, I believe that wears a kilt, and my sons too. I go to Raleigh, NC and see someone in a UK and AK sometimes. They do hold a Kilt Night in at Tir Na Nog in Raleigh and I think I am going to check the Ren Fair this weekend. The funny thing is how many Scottish clans settled in Sanford and everyone there looks at me like I stepped off of a spaceship. All I can say is, "I have FREEDOM from Trouser Tyranny!!!"

    Apparently, it's happened before: "[In 1739] 350 Highlanders landed in Wilmington under the leadership of Neil McNeill and, according to tradition, left that town because the settlers made fun of their peculiar costumes ...." North Carolina: History of a Southern State, Hugh Lefler, Albert Newsome, p. 72.
