Black Iguana Pirates of the Bayou

The Black Iguana Pirates of the Bayou engaged in another rip roaring bayou adventure on FM1960 for the 30th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Houston, Texas. 

Our very own Captain Jack Sparrow (AKA Earl Castor) and swashbuckler Will Turner (AKA Marcus Latham) were at the helm of the Black Iguana ship, sister pirate ship of the Black Pearl.

   

As part of the seafaring myth and magic, the adventure-loving Black Iguana ship crew partook in over-the-edge arrrg fun, throwing medallions, beads, and watching sports on a 52″ flat screen — now that would make the cursed Captain Barbossa (AKA Shane Butler) even more raving mad!
