This year we sent our friend Doug the Millionaire to cover the festivities. We figured he would be a good fit because venture capitalists and pirates are cut from the same cloth–they rape, pillage and over-compensate with large nautical vessels.

Watch our video, as Doug the Millionaire mingles with the pirates and makes it through the whole thing without making one seamen joke!
