This is from the buffettlist...
For those that aren't aware, Pirate Soul is the new Museum to south
Florida's pirate history being put together on Front Street in Key West by
the former Philadelphia 76'ers President (and NBC's 2004 Olympic Judo
commentator) and AVID Parrothead, Pat Croce. Pat's daughter, a Penn State
graduate, will be the museum's general manager. The museum's website
(www.piratesoul.com) only posts an opening date of "Winter 2004" and a link
to Croce's website at this point, so it looks like something that will have
to be visited during MOTM in 2005.

believe it or not I may be managing Pat Croce's Pirate Mini-Golf here for the rest of the summer. Believe it or not pirates are my first hobby close in place to Buffett. I'm currently writing a pirate themed book. I just figured he did the golf course in pirate theme because of the shore town thing.
