The First Ever Million Pirate March

Well, it's the first meeting of a million pirates, as far as I know. No barques, schooners or Doubloons required if you want to participate. But you must somehow identify yourself as a pirate (the historical kind or even the Seafair kind) -- and the Million Pirate March website has a blueprint for building a personal pirate ship.

On May 18, 2008 meet at Steuart and Mission at 8am. The Million Pirate March will take off after runners have cleared the Bay to Breakers starting line. Organizers ask that you register as an ING Bay to Breakers participant -- even though you are a pirate, and even though there's nothing about that in the pirate code of conduct.

Read the Million Pirate March FAQ for more info. See a map of the Bay to Breakers course for starting location.
