Fencing got me a wife!
I'd done all three, as well (foil was my fave, though: I'm not really tall enough to do fence epee effectively.).
I met my wife through fencing. We were introduced, and she immediately tried to stab me (She fenced left-handed, but really only did foil). We still have all our stuff downstairs in storage. We were cheap: almost all of our blades were made by France-Lames (although this was long enough ago that they still made decent weapons). I think almost all of our stuff came through Triplette (good folks to work through back then, can't speak for them now: It's been too long).
I never fenced kilted, though: fencing for me was WAY pre-kilt.
I was also a rated director at one point. I wonder what the USFA or FIE would say about a kilted director? If memory serves, the regs required tan or khaki pants back then.
