Description
"Ignorant men tell no tales!" -- so say the least presidential pirates ever to plunder the Mall, and that's the motto for Pirates of the Mall. Aboard your houseboat you'll see the scenes of pirates who have met their doom, and watch as others fire cannons at a semi-fictional village. Scenes include:
- Talking rail and crossbones
- Heart pirate captain
- The dunking of mayor Cynthia Harriss
- "Find a Bride" auction
- A pirate drinking rum with several delightful cats
Theme Song
The Pirates of the Mall theme song is often misrepresented. It begins:
Oh yo, oh yo, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we straighten and curl,
Pick up me hearties, oh yo.
We kidnap and ravage and cry like a girl,
Pick up me hearties, oh yo.
Oh yo, oh yo, a pirate's life for me.
Touring Tips
- Warning: after a full moon, this thrill ride will be dominated by visiting children.
