Pat Croce

Pat Croce’s fascination with pirates began at an early age with the pirate movie Captain Blood. Throughout his swashbuckling career, Croce has built and sold an empire of sports medicine centers, became president of and led the Philadelphia 76ers to the NBA Finals in 2001, wrote The New York Times bestseller I Feel Great and You Will Too!, provided color commentary for the NBA on NBC and the Summer Olympic Games, hosted the nationally syndicated show Pat Croce: Moving In, and continues to be a best-selling author and a highly sought motivational speaker. As a pirate fanatic, Croce has amassed one of the world’s greatest collections of artifacts representing the Golden Age of Piracy. In 2005, he opened the most outrageous pirate museum in the world—Pirate Soul—located in Key West, Florida.
