As a morning radio guy, I can guarantee that I would show no mercy on them.

Not gonna happen. The owner of the Kildare's chain is a regular guest on Philly's most popular morning show. Brings them free food and drinks... they hold events at a couple Kildare's locations... who would bash him and risk losing all that? Especially the free drinks at 7am?????

I've been to Kildare's a few times. Not kilted however. I'll admit they do have a mighty tasty sandwich, but I will agree about the atmostphere. I wouldn't say fake.... I would say trying too hard.

Count one more e-mail sent. I am also asking the nor'east convener for the Clan Macduff Society to send an e-mail and to rally the troops to send an e-mail, as well.

Siva -- what show? What station? They need an e-mail, too.

That sucks, sorry for the hassle. I wouldn't go back, but I would make sure they knew the problem -- it sounds like that is taken care of.

I have gotten into several bars and private parties BECAUSE I was wearing a kilt. At one $30/person party I got in for free after the female ticket taker performed a quick kilt check.

EDIT: If a guy asks in that situation -- LIE!

Unfortunately, no and it tends to be drafty in winter being close to the front door and all.

He's all over 933 WMMR. And guaranteed if a letter was sent to them, the DJ's would read it on air, make fun of it, and encourage MORE people to harass kilties... maybe even make a contest out of it. It would be open season in Philly.
