TheBlackFox Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Pirates Alley is not where the feast will be held, mates. . .it'll be at the Original French Market Restaurant! There'll be plenty of room for all! Trust me, PyrateCon be more than ready to handle everyone as the promoters putting this year's 'Con together are über-organized. . . . expect the best that New Orleans has to offer and more. Keep an eye on www.pyratecon.com for updates coming in the next week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBlackFox Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I have a GREAT idea for spending $$ in New Orleans. . . . instead of using paper bills, go to the bank and convert all of your spending money into those gold $1 coins! It be much more pyratey to throw down five gold coins for a drink than some wimpy paper with a dead guy on it. All the change we give at our booth will be in the form of gold $1 coins! I know. . .it's heavy. . . but make a cool sound in yer pouch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a vendor at other events I've had people give me up to twenty-five dollars in those gold dollar coins....I've got a bunch of them now, I get them so confused with quarters in my wallet (especially in dark places), I forget about them being worth a dollar. So I just ended up putting them away and not using them. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchman Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 its sad when the post office does not even want them back. the stamp machine sends em out as change, but won't take em back- thinks they are quarters. thats the only local place that dishes them out anyhow. we use them alot here. mix them with some gaudy costume jewelry and period repro coins and you can get a good once over as you are paying bills- not in attire. last month there was a new waitress at the local watering hole (shameless plug for marker 20). we rolled in before a meeting, had dinner and paid for it all in coins. poor thing, the bartender had to explain it to her. now pack to pyratecon, Blackbeard's Crew will be sending a raiding party. Madam grace (#2 hot wench last year will be returning), willoughby will have her own program on music, myself and atleast a half dozen more.
