This morning someone I follow on Facebook posted this statement, “The term March Madness has taken on a whole new meaning for me.” I believe I laughed out loud because I knew EXACTLY what she was talking about. She and I have been part of the craziness that is leading up to Tartan Week in NYC.
First, let me say that I signed up to go to Tartan Week BS (Before Sam) because the gals in my local fan group, OH-landers (hey girls hey!), said of all the Scottish related events they had attended including Outlander events -THIS- was by far the most fun they had together. Looking at the pictures they shared from last year and reading stories of their adventures, it sure did look and sound like they had fun! My local group had joined forces with other local groups who had formed a new group called Outlanders United. They were the folks that asked the Tartan Week Committee if we could be part of the parade. Starz was a sponsor last year and the lucky Outlander fans that attended got to represent with banners and spiffy t-shirts!
OUTLANDER star Graham McTavish swapped 18th Century Scotland for Mid Town Manhattan today, leading thousands through The Big Apple in the 17th Tartan Day Parade.
The Glasgow born actor was Grand Marshall at the event staged by the American Scottish Foundation as part of the Tartan Week celebrations.
The city that never sleeps was alive with the sound of pipes and drums as thousands of Scots, descendants and expats joined Scotland Now to parade through the heart of New York in the sunshine.
