BlizzCon: The Dances of Warcraft

by Kevin Kelly { Aug 6th 2007 at 9:00PM }

BlizzCon's dance contest brought out some interesting entries on Friday night, especially in the female Blood Elf category, which just about everyone seemed to end up doing. There were also a couple of Murlocs in there, even a baby version, but the icing on the cake has to go to the first guy in the video above.

He shows off "The Origins of the Ogre Dance", and we have to say it takes guts to get up on stage and do this. Literally. Unfortunately, he didn't even win or place, which is a complete travesty. The guy was robbed. The winning entry, which we didn't capture on video, was a guy in a Napoleon Dynamite-esque costume who wasn't half bad (he did the Blood Elf male dance, which is based on Napoleon Dynamite's famous move) ... but imitating Chris Farley's classic SNL skit while at a fan convention for a video game is pure gold.

Ahh I dig this up from one of my first comments:
So naturally as a zombie you came onto an internet forum and posted how you died for all of us.

That man is either the craziest or bravest man this side of the sun. Either way I salute him.

Losers... every single one of them. And so is anyone else who plays more than 10 hours of WoW per week.

Go ahead, attack the easy targets.
I honestly find gamers attacking gamers kind of pathetic. It's like a bunch of 6 year olds calling each other immature.

Obviously none of those people ever had formal dance training. But with that said its not too badly done if its just from casual dance. If any of those people do have dance training then seriously they need more practice.

Ummm....six year olds are immature. By definition. And the only way these WoW players could be lamer is if they had gout.
