Nothing like a few amateur Vikings to liven up your day (and burn your boat)

SCOTLAND'S VIKINGS GO OWN WAY IN INDEPENDENCE VOTE

"The event's focus is a fiery parade - powered by marching songs and brass bands - that ends when the well-drilled amateur Vikings hurl their torches onto a replica longship that has taken months to build. The orange fireball lights up the night sky. Once the vessel has sunk, smoldering, into the sea, the participants head to local halls for evenings of music and comic skits that are part barn dance, part Mardi Gras."
