I first saw “Pirates of the Caribbean” at Disneyland in April, 1972.

If I recall, there was a chubby woman chasing a bearded skinny pirate who had a scared look on his face.

There were two women being chanced by pirates and then a male pirate comes through the door being chased by a fat woman. This passed for humor, as in bring on the pirates, I’m fat and can’t get a man otherwise, even a pirate, unless I chase him.

I had heard that was dropped from the attraction, because pirates chasing women and by extension having their way with them (read raping) is no longer PC. I defer to someone who has been on the ride the last 10 years.

Yes, there were a few pirates chasing pretty girls around in a circle, then you'd get to the chubby girl chasing the skinny pirate. I wonder if that's still part of the ride. I always thought it was funny!
