Join storyteller Tim Lowry as he recounts the humorous story of how Peter Parker's pants were blown off at the Battle of Fort Sullivan. A particular British Commodore standing on the poop deck of his battleship mooned Colonel Moultrie's men inside their palmetto log fort. Presented with a perfectly positioned target, the South Carolina volunteers took careful aim and Mr. Peter Parker got his pants blown off! Peter Parker’s humiliation proved to the world that Great Britain had gotten too big for its britches and needed cutting down to size.
