| Tossing the caber and sheaf pitching are other crowd-pleasers. |
|
| The former typically involves large men in loud tartan tossing the caber, throwing the hammer and putting the stone, while the latter includes athletic track and field events. |
|
| The sports included tossing the caber, standing long jump, weight for height, kiltie dash, Highland steps and weight for distance. |

| Certain aspects of the games are so well known as to have become emblematic of Scotland, such as the bagpipes, the kilt, and the heavy events, especially the caber toss. |
|
| The disciplines include the caber, standing long jump, weight for height, weight for distance, linear shot, Highland steps, kilties s dash and the skipping challenge. |
