Did you know that the Pirate Parrot is available for public
appearances at no cost? There are some criteria that need
to be met, but as long as it is a non-profit event, a short
visit from the Pittsburgh Pirates's mascots, and it can be
scheduled, the Pirate Parrot may come and visit your event. |

Simply a man dressed in pirate's garb, the Buccaneer was a
secondary mascot for the Pittsburgh Pirates for the 1996 Season.
That is, he was until the portrayer was caught skinny dipping in
a closed public pool during the 1995 All-Star break. |

Introduction |
2006.05.26 |

|
After sinking the Astros 12-5, the Pirates introduced the
as-yet-unnamed mascot to join the fan-favorite Pirate Parrot.
He is planned to be integrated into the Sunday Kids Days and
other community and marketing initiatives. |

What's in a Name? |

|
The first
marketing and interest generating ploy is to name the scruffy
bearded buccaneer in cooperation with the Trib Total Media
newspapers. The winning child will be invited to PNC Par
during Kids Day on 2006.06.18 to watch the Pirates play the
Minnesota Twins. #25 of the Aliquippa Cardinals has a name
in mind and has submitted his idea to the Pittsburgh
Pirates. |
