Tulsans Take In Scotfest

Green Country celebrates Scottish heritage with Scotfest featuring music, food, and some serious competition.

The Highland Games Lightweight Championship welcomes 120 men and women to compete for a chance at the world championship.

One of the events is the Sheaf toss where competitors use pitchforks to toss a 16-pound burlap sack up and over a wire.

Michael Dickens is a five-time world champion and explains how it's different from Scotland's national sport: golf.

"We definitely feed off the crowd energy and screaming.  You know the other crazy Scottish sport they like people to be quiet.  But we like people to make a lot of noise." Dickens said. 

Scotfest continues Saturday night at Riverwest park and runs through 6pm Sunday.
