Celtic Festival and Highland Games II

A most popular event at the festival was a booth giving passersby an opportunity to 'fight the giant'. Armor, swords and shields were available for use of the participants. It seemed especially well-loved by the younger set. The poor giant fought valiantly, but succumbed many times, to the delight of the crowd. Fortunately, there was also more than one giant.









One 'giant' even painted himself blue in true Celtic fashion.
