Well, let's see...
Massed Bands - Having both perspectives from (sober and not so sober), it always stirs emotions. Having two other perspectives (participant and spectator (in both cases sober and not so sober)), it is equally stirring.
Highland Dancing - Love to watch but I have to say that some of the dance moms and teachers are worse than hockey parents.
Heavy Athletics - Always a favourite (notice the Canadian flavo"u"r to that word)
Clan Tents - For the first time this summer, there was actually a representative of the clan MacPherson so I was actually interested for the first time.
Concerts - When we can actually pull away from our tent, this is great. The proximity of our booth to the stage at the Fergus Highland Games allows us to catch the main stage entertainment. This year, John Allan Cameron and the Cottars played. Once, we actually closed and packed up early so that we could catch Solas playing.
Vendors - Love checking out the stands but most festivals allow too much junk vendors in.
Whiskey Tasting - Glasses are never big enough.
Men in Kilts - Not my cup of tea.
Women in Kilts - This isn't the Pub is it?!?

I agree, you hear bagpipes for days later...even in your sleep.
The most unusual thing I saw happening at a Highland Games was actually at the Dancing. The girls dress fell off during her dance!!! She was actually very good about it, she would dance, it would fall off, she would pull it up, she would dance!
