What's the best reaction you've gotten to your wearing a kilt?

[CDNSushi]

Oh, but when it comes to grammar, I'm such a didactic pedant! Typo in the thread title corrected, as requested.

I missed that typo in the title
Now if someone could fix it so that it reads "reaction" I would be so happy.

Oh, no! It's much better the way it is!

Spoil sport!

I prefer originals in general.

I truth my wife still cringes when I wear my kilt, though my daughter is always as proud as punch to be seen with her kilted father.

Free drinks are nice, but the best comment I have ever heard was the New Years we went to Atlantic City and I was decked out. PC and all proper. I was walking into the casino and an elderly woman crossed from one side to come over to me. She motioned me down where I could hear what she said. "I just love seeing a man in a proper kilt". It took me a second to understand her through her heavy accent. She smiled and then gave me a kiss on the cheek. I think I walked a little taller all night because of this.

I have to say that my favorite has to be from when I was hiking on some local trails. The full story is available through one of my previous threads. I was headed uphill when a young lady that was running on the trails was headed downhill past me. Just after we passed each other I heard a ruckus and turned to discover she had actually fallen and rolled part way down the hill.
Then there's the woman that I used to work with and still see occasionally due to both volunteering through the Red Cross. If she knows we'll be at the same even she sends me a text message to find out if I plan to attend kilted or not because as she puts it "If you're kilted I can't wear a skirt because your legs just look too good and I feel self conscience."

I wear my full kilt uniform to greet at the Utah Opera Productions. I get "I come to the Opera to see you in your kilt" "You look dashing" and "You make coming to the Opera a real pleasure, thanks for wearing your kilt" It really makes me feel like I have added a bit to the occasion.

After a Winter golf competition,went home changed and showered, went back in kilt,ghillies,aye ghillies, ecru hose,aye ecru hose and Argyll jacket and had a loud cheer when I entered main room.As if my chest wasnt puffed out already. Went to the bar and was checked instantly and congratulated to much hilarity.

I've had several variations on this scenario: A lovely woman comes up to me and says, in a low voice, with dropped eyelids and a suggestive lean towards me, " I love a man in a kilt".

As I have often explained to those who question my predilection, never have I experienced a similar situation where a woman has seductively said to me, "I love a man in pants".

And, there is always Donna, the proprietor of my favourite Toronto pub, the Caledonian, who never fails to make me feel special for wearing a kilt to her establishment, and who chastises me for the times I end up there without being able to kilt up first.
Cheers,
John

On the way to "The Real Mckenzies" concert, a young woman and two young men were approaching me (mid 20s). The lady kneeled and bend down sideways, as she would like to perform a kilt check, with the smile from ear to ear on here face. The lads were totally confused; watching me and her with no clue what to do.

It was nice and encouraging. I was the only kilty in the audience.
