#2 Check-matey

There's more than plundering and pillaging in Pirates of the Caribbean.

When walking through the queue to the right, look down into the dungeon.  You'll notice two pirate skeletons- enthralled in a game of chess.  But it's not just any game of chess.

Marc Davis, one of Disney's most notable and famous Imagineers, was a huge chess aficionado.  He researched the game until he found record of the one stalemate in history, and arranged the pirates' pieces like so.  Therefore, they are "pondering their next move for eternity."
