Buried in this BBC News article lamenting the banning of traditional haggis in the US is this money quote:

A 2003 survey suggested that a third of US visitors to Scotland believed the haggis was an animal. Nearly a quarter thought they could catch one.

I can see it now--Catching the Haggis, the newest event in the Highland Games. :-D

I've had lung- and lung-free haggis, and will admit I'm slightly more fond of the lung-free...

(sadly, I'll be missing this year's Burns Night Scotch tasting at Keen's. Just couldn't get my act together in time.)

There's a big gathering in Binghamton for Burns night, but around here it's not such a big deal. Then, again, Binghamton has a pipe band, so the haggis can be properly celebrated.
