2011-28-01-Tampa-Gasprilla-Parade
Tampa- Saturday January 28, 2011 crowds in the hundreds of thousands gathered in downtown Tampa for the annual Gasparilla pirate invasion and parade. The morning started off with a flotilla invasion of locals who decked out their boats in the best pirate gear they could find and moseyed their way through the bay, and anchored down for the day’s events. As the Parade was nearing, pirates big and small lined the parade route to get the best spot to catch those ever popular beads thrown to the crowd from the many lavishly decorated parade floats.
