History

The brain child of Sir Feral Lynn, this event was created in 2004, but was held for the first time in early 2005. It is an event with a uniquely Wetlands style and flavor. Pirates are the order of the day, and the Wetlands serves up piratey goodness with style and flavah. The first event was held at Jones Country Music Fairgrounds in East Texas. The featured battle was Roust the Rogues. The event grew by leaps and bounds its second year out, mostly because Olympiad was being held in conjunction with it.

PSIII, held at Alabama Coushatta Indian Reservation, featured a "No Kings" Pirate-Style court, with no high table, and only one award being handed out. This will continue as a tradition of the event for years to come. Ship battles, Save the Maiden obstacle courses that are unique every year, plank tournaments, and Shennanigans by the Kraken Horde are also becoming staples of each Piratical Sabattical.
