Tartan Day

In the US, this commemorates the signing of the Declaration of Arbroath in 1320, the Scottish declaration of independence. Scottish Americans wear kilts and play bagpipes. In states with heavy Scottish heritage (North Carolina, which has more Scottish descendants than any other state), the celebration is earnest and loud. The bagpipes are very loud.
