Hoots mon! Real men wear skirts, and battle it out for dominance in the mini Highland Games. Time to roll out the Braveheart quotes for a chest-beating afternoon of proper man stuff. A brilliant alternative way to spend the Saturday afternoon of a stag weekend, the Highland Games is the perfect antidote to bog standard activities you could do anywhere.
Blackpool is one of the few places in Britain to offer this hilarious event. Teams compete for the coveted 'Golden Haggis' award at a farm just 15 minutes from Blackpool town centre.
If you've ever fancied a bash at welly wanging and tossing the caber, now's your chance to live the dream. Game marshals will split the group into teams, dish out orange wigs and kilts, and get the banter going.
When everyone's kilted up, the mini Highland Games begin. Choose your fastest runner for the farmers dash and the best marksman for the archery challenge. The games end with the grand daddy of stag challenges: the tug 'o war. The winning team earns the title and bragging rights for the rest of the stag weekend.
