Bank of the Buccaneers

The new "Bank of the Buccaneers" is BB&T. Now, not too many people have heard of BB&T because they are new to the Tampa Bay market.........and what they want to do is get the bank name out to the public. That's where the Wise Guys come in...........we were approached to come up with some ideas about pirate mascots or spokespersons to entertain the public and hand out bank goodies at the Bucs home games and pep rallies. 

Some of the opening ideas were to have pirates with live birds........but.......if you have ever had to deal with live animals you know that they are a bit unpredictable and can get a little fussy. So the Wise Guys came up with the idea of using life-like puppets with a bit of an illusion. 

The Following are some of the pictures we have of the new "Captain Doubloon and First Mate Penny" along with their birds "Peso and Jackson". From the custom BB&T belt buckle to the embroidered logo on the back of each costume.............see you at the games.
