One Eye Pre-Adjusted for Below Deck ~ Nobody Checked

The story goes that pirates wore a patch to keep one eye ready for the dark below deck, flipping it up at the hatch like night vision. It is a lovely idea. Not a single record supports it, a 2007 television test could only call it plausible, and most patches covered an eye that had simply stopped working.

  • For the friend who ruins fun facts: Buy it for the guy who says actually at parties, the science teacher who grades trivia night, and anyone who has googled a claim mid-conversation.
  • Verdict, disappointing: Plausible is what you call a theory when you cannot prove it and do not want to kill it.
  • Debunked by: Part of Pirate History & Legends, where the legend gets a label and the eye gets a patch.


Damien swears the best stories start after sundown on the dock, when the breeze turns cool and nobody wants to go below deck ~ this Comfort Colors long sleeve tee is made for exactly that watch: soft garment-dyed ring-spun cotton, a relaxed lived-in fit and sleeves all the way to the wrist, sizes S through 3XL ~ hoist the colors and stay out a little longer
