Well, I for one would like to have a traditional[as reported by Caesar
and Herodotus] celtic feast where the day's champion gets to have first
hack at the whole roasted pig[or cow if we are going for irish celt], or

public with the servers taking platters to the tables in order of
prescedence... ahhh, barbaric splendor!
