Around Azeroth: Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free
We received a lot of submissions from various Pirate's Day celebrations yesterday, but Richard's picture was by far the most ... glittery. He didn't provide much information, but this appears to be an Alliance party at the pirate ships down south of Booty Bay. You know, the area where you get repeatedly killed by respawns, running pirates, and magical teleporting buccaneers who spot you through the walls of ships. Fun times.
Do you have any unusual, beautiful or interesting World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see them on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, gold seller ads with deadgnomes any race at all, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.

Argh... now that song is stuck in my head. My son likes that show and I've seen that episode a few too many times.

+1 Awesome for Lazytown pirate song reference.
There's an awesome trance remix of it somewhere on the internet.

Yet another Lazytown reference. Hilarious.

Wait........that song is from Lazytown? I only knew it from a flash animation online that definitely wasn't from Lazytown. Mind=blown.

I know which one you mean, it's the short animation of a pirate.. said "LOL LIMEWIRE" or something like that.... Yarr!

@RogueJedi86
The one that was animated by Fred Perry, with his Leprechaun Pirate Ninjas?

Pirate Day on my PvP server was a gank fest. Bones littered the warfs and bored 80's roamed killing all in sight (especially those of a much lower level than themselves. After all, why bother with an honorable kill, when you got an easy one right there). The poor goblin bruisers were so overworked, that they could barely stand up towards the end of the night. And, multiple trips to the spirit healer were made just to get a costume and achievement.
I did find out, much to my amusement, that getting killed on the ship back to Ratchet didn't actual require a spirit healer trip, and I rezzed on arrival. Also, the ships crew doesn't defend the passengers (another amusing tidbit).
Methinks, the 80's on Eradar have way too much time on their hands. Here's hoping the cataclysm comes soon.
Sural
PS: I love a challenging World-PvP encounter, but I don't even bother to defend myself against the 80's anymore. I just /yawn and rezz quickly to deny any strange affections from my killers.

Was a similar bloodbath on Bloodscalp, where the Horde seemed to hold the area all day.
Noticed that while I was dead, even before completing the achievement, that if I stood around I could work on my bloodsail rep because every bruiser anyone killed affected it. Didn't actually want to work on it until after Brewfest, so left when Everlook got down to Friendly...
oh, and came here to link this:

A last ditch effort to take a screenshot of Shalimara, Rompedor, Rotmuffin and Antamaala on Malorne before the ganking began again. Ah, those were the days. Or just one day. a few days ago.

Proudmoore had a Gay Pride Day celebration in Booty Bay a couple of months ago that was full of glitter, smoke, lights, etc. Surprised we never saw pix on Around Azeroth. I'll have to see if I saved any.

Arrrrr!
Sorry, that's the extent of my talking like a pirate.
