If you've shopped at Pike Place Market, you no doubt have passed Pike Place Fish, the seafood seller famous for the lively comedic floor show the staff puts on when someone makes a purchase. They make a lot of noise and literally throw fish through the air, much to the delight of the tourist crowd that gathers around. This vendor is directly in front of Rachel the life size bronze piggy bank. There are other fish vendors at the market with lower prices, but these guys have an edge on the entertainment factor. Each is suited up in a gray tee shirt and Grundon's seaman's orange rubber coveralls, suspenders and rubber boots.

So, what's the price of fesh halibut at your local fish market?
