Illinois Pirate Fan

Apr 02, 2008 Dec 23, 2009 54 315

Probably the only Pirate fan in Central Illinois but I've followed the Bucs since I visited my aunt in Pittsburgh in the summer of 1960 when I got caught up in the "Beat 'Em" Bucs campaign. I even rigged up an antenna when I was in high school so I could pull in KDKA and listen to Bob Prince on the radio. I have since turned my den into a 1960 Pirate memorabilia room.
