Rumors have circulated that the Captain of Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla and a fierce battalion of pirates plan to invade downtown Tampa on Saturday, January 27, at approximately 11:30 a.m.
The Krewe, notorious for its theatrical noise props (cannons), will “discuss” the advantages of Mayor Castor surrendering the key to the City of Tampa. Her only chance — surrender now or face the historic Gasparilla Invasion.
Should the Mayor choose not to voluntarily meet the Captain at the appointed date and time, Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla’s advance team will likely take the Mayor by force.
They will respectfully deliver her to the appointed meeting place, reported to be Lykes Gaslight Park on Franklin Street, between Kennedy and Madison.
