Gasparilla is Coming!!!

#1 Postby JonathanBelles » Fri Jan 04, 2008 12:29 am

The Pirate invasion is coming to Tampa Bay January 26th. I've been around Gasparilla, just not in it. Never been to the parade either.

Few glitches so far via Ch 8. Manatees were all coming into the bay and they had problems moving them to the sides so the 1000's of boats could come in. The Gaspar Pirates boat has a minor fire as well. Also there may be a small lack of beads due to lead that wasnt checked, but most of the beads that were checked went out. Rain may also be a small problem.
