Although I’m not GOTH, I used to live in Tampa Bay and I’ve been to the Castle many times. In fact
I’ll be there this Halloween (Guavaween). It’s odd that San Diego used a pirate theme, since that
is core to the history of Tampa Bay. Tampa has pirates everywhere, from the football team to
an annual month long party called Gaspirilla, which includes a pirate invasion of the city.
The Tampa site made their site look high-tech and Matrix like. Considering San Diego is the wireless
capital, I think they got it backwards as well.

Yeah, to tell you the truth, Tampa Bay’s website might be more appealing, but I was still impressed with how much time the San Diego crew put into theirs.
Guavaween looks pretty sweet - have a good time.
