most likely Oregon -- a pirate based talk show up there started some Talk like a Pirate day thing years ago --- then the people got on a show called Wife Swap -- and the thing took off --

I read this in an article
"It all started back in the 1990s as a cult joke between two American friends - John "Ol Chumbucket" Baur and Mark "Capn Slappy" Summers - but took off when syndicated columnist Dave Barry got to hear about their surreal festival."
