Pirates at WDW event?


Recommended Posts

I'd heard from a friend who went to Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party (twice) last week that there was a crew of pirates stationed around the PoTC attraction singing songs and rabble rousing with guests. I was wondering if any of them were posters from this site?

Diosa and I were there opening night making trouble out there with our friends from The Rusty Cutlasses - they work there as the pirate band. They were a lot of fun. Stop by and tell them Hurricane sent you - Nate will freak out!

I believe they're there every night of the event. It's a fun event. We wish we could go again but we have a PotC interactive on the 22nd and Guavaween on the 29th, so the calendar is a bit full. Enjoy the event and we hope to see you sometime since we're all neighbors.

I know a guy who does "stormtrooper re-enacting." He has gone to Disney World with his fellow stormtroopers, gotten in for free, in exchange for doing time for the public in his armor. I don't know if he does this every year, but for the sake of argument lets say he does. Also, I'm not sure how big this event is, but from what I've heard, it's pretty big. So, the question becomes, why doesn't Disney World invite a bunch of pirate re-enactors to do something similar for the public?

Ahh...you must be referring to Star Wars weekends. I had seen a group (flock? gaggle? regiment?) of storm troopers this past summer at the event. Nothing like a man in uniform, even if it is white plastic and black lycra. B)

I recall seeing some pirates at WDW (at the PoTC attraction) a few years back, not during an event. Indeed, it would be great if Disney did that more often.

Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@

I'll be at WDW and thereabouts the Wednesday before Thanksgiving through December 1st. It would be fun to hook up with you locals if you're going to be around at that time. (I really want to see Pleasure Island - I hear it's supposed to be a Disney rendition of Key West.)

I'll probably be in town when you're here. Holler back when the time comes closer...and perhaps more folks can join in to welcome yah.

Pleasure Island has clubs (dance and comedy), shops, and a few places to eat. An Irish pub (Raglan Road?) will be opening up there in two or three weeks.

I probably won't know much more than I know now about it. My family reunites (my brother and two sisters are scattered all over the country) once a year to go on a monstrosity of a family vacation - which is WDW this year. As it happened, there is an AutoCad convention right after TG in Orlando and I'm staying for that as well.

I'll pm you come mid-November and see if we can arrange something. Maybe we could meet at Pleasure Island? (Er, I don't quite mean that like it reads. B) )

Perhaps Hurricane could make it too. (We could argue politics. B) )

Unfortunately I won't be heading out any farther than the norm next week. I'll be spending a bit of time with family, and we usually hang at the parks (WDW) or somewhere nearby. I do hope yah have a great time though!

Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@

Ahoy Joshua Red.....

Yes, you are not far from me at all. If you get a chance, head up to Biketoberfest, it is truly a blast. I am sure most of what you heard is true. I have seen some pretty wild times up there over the years. They (Daytona City Fathers) are trying to make it a family event. I seriously doubt that is going to happen, so now Biketoberfest and Bike Week are moving out to Ormond and surrounding area. If you get out that way, drop me a line before you come out and maybe we can hook up. :huh:B)

Some crewmembers from me pirate group, The Crewe of the Black Pearl, were at WDW on October 20th and 21st! We had a blast! And we were even asked to be Grand Marshals of the parade the first night!
