Around Azeroth: We come from the land of the ice and snow
It looks like this particular instance run has gone down like a lead zeppelin, to quote an infamous phrase. (Joke's on you, Entwistle -- at least John Bonham died before he got old.)
According to Joline of <Deep Thought> on Stormreaver, a group member disconnected in the middle of an instance, and the whole gang was stuck waiting for him to make his way through the 600-person queue. They started passing around some of those paper zeppelins you can buy at the Dalaran toy shop to pass the time. There's a little trick where if you run away from a zeppelin, it continues following you, but you also get it in your inventory to throw back. Zeppelin + Bug + Time + Empty Instance = This Picture. Hmm ... these zeppelin stacks remind me of something from college. Ah, yes. The big ol' pile of footballs. Such memories.

Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, double-mounts, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.Filed under: Screenshots, Around Azeroth, Galleries

Done.
And to contribute:
Cool, something to do while waiting for raids to get rolling!

I modded a mod to play the Immigrant Song riff whenever Rune Strike is up. Thought of doing Plant's OoooooohhOOOHH for Horn of Winter, but decided that was going too far.

So you went to UW Madison? Small world :D

The day the expansion came out, after loading it up, logging in, and getting on the Zepplin to Borean Tundra, I fired up Immigrant Song to play in the background. Good times!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one. :D
Only in my case, it was the boat from Stormwind.

Wait wait, a Led reference? Really!? You sir get bonus points. Many many bonus points! Although I stopped playing much music while playing wow, I'll occasionally dab into the Led while raiding... umm, u know, after my wonderful leaders have stopped explaining the fight

Wow...take it easy on Entwistle, plus we all know Keith Moon WTF pwns John Bonham. Like hes so OP God Nerfed him "TO THE GROUND BABY"
Riley Jan 5th 2009 5:21PM
it wouldnt have made sense then, because Keith Moon did die before he got old, Entwistle was like 60 something
Riley Jan 5th 2009 5:23PM
Led Zeppelin=average
The Who= amazing
TheTreasoner Jan 5th 2009 6:09PM
He was 57. Hardly 60 something. :P
Old is all in your mind, for the record, so John Entwistle DID die before he got old. :P
Plus, Bohnam never wrote any songs nearly as filled with absolute win like Boris the Spider or My Wife.
Riley Jan 5th 2009 7:34PM
yeah, it was a little longer ago then i thought. is it really 2009?
and yeah, i guess dying by ODing isn't really an old person thing to do
also, Boris the Spider=win

I won't lie. On Wrath launch day, when I got on the boat in Stormwind, I blasted Immigrant Song. And had been planning to do so pretty much since Wrath was announced.
