Highland Games—Become the next Donald Dinnie!
Join Dr. Carson Beckett in a celebration of Scottish culture, haggis, and manly athletic events at the first Intergalactic Highland Games! The games will take place next weekend on the mainland outside the Athosian village, weather permitting. Participate in thrilling competitions such as tossing the caber, hurling the sheaf, throwing the clachneart, slamming the brummker, and whumping the sheppard (1). Other events include:
--Battle Axe Throw: Please bring your own battle axe
--Kilted Mile: Foot race in which all runners must wear kilts (no exceptions)
--Women's events: Tossing the Wellie, folk dances, and Bonnie Knees contest (in which ladies judge male competitors by certain parts of their anatomies...no, not that part! You people have dirty minds)
--Whiskey Tasting: Self-explanatory
--Farmer's Walk: Carrying two 150-pound weights as far as possible (followed by post-walk hernia treatment by Dr. Beckett)
(1) Literary event only
A/N: This chapter also came from a suggestion by Sazzy1234. Pretty much all these events are real, not made up. Those Scots sure are inventive! PS. Donald Dinnie is considered one of Scotland's greatest athletes and competed in many Highland Games.
