The Crustacean Nation Rises

The Birth of the Crustacean Nation: Annapolis Crab Rave Legend

Early 2020, right as COVID was shutting the world down, I was in Annapolis, Maryland. “Crab Rave” was blowing up on YouTube, so I stopped at a crab restaurant, went live, and tried real Maryland blue crabs for the first time.

I picked up a crab, made it dance to the beat, and started chanting “MEGA MEGA MEGA” for the upcoming GAW. What started as a silly moment exploded. After the stream, the chat flooded with crab emojis. Instead of fighting it, I leaned all the way in — and from that random crab restaurant, the Crustacean Nation was officially born!🦀
