Link is Digging up Rupees in Seattle, Washington |
Listed in: Wii, Nintendo DS Tags: Golf, Seattle, Zelda
Our favorite video game hero has been making appearances
throughout Seattle, Washington, and his appearances are getting national
attention as a result. Link, whose real name is not known, is found casually
walking the streets of the Capitol Hill area of Seattle with an "old
man." The old man's relation with the young hero is unknown, leaving even
more mystery around these appearances. Some say it's the same guy who gave him
his metal baseball bat that he has equipped as his sword, but that too is a
mystery. According to several reports, the young adventurer has been seen on
the train, swinging around his shovel in search of rupees from people! I don't
think you'll find any in these parts of the world Link, but I guess it never
hurts trying.
Link has earned notice from a Seattle paper called The Stranger, in which they
go on to describe his social encounters with people. Link has been described as
a good character, of good nature like his video game counterpart, and to be a
sign of good luck for the citizens of the city. So, if you live in the Seattle
area of Washington and have happened to encounter our hero, drop us some lines
in the comments! Some have already shared their comments over the web, some of
which can be found below -
LiveJournal user Psykoinsane:
"So I saw the Zelda kid for the first time last weekend when we were playing the Seattle Urban Golf. A bunch of golfers were outside of the Redwood playing music, dancing, having fun and he got hella pissed at the people dancing and having fun (they were the space virgins that started the ruckus and it was good times...they were all shiny silver and dressed up nicely) and he started yelling at people and walked away super pissed off. He was all "What is this a party?" .... "Well you don't have to be so loud!" and storms off (I was headed to the next hole and only caught the tail end of this fine confrontation. My team assumed he was pissed since he wasn't the freak at that moment. We out freaked him. Fun times."
Mr_sadhead relates the following tale of Sapphic screaming:
"I have a friend who was trying to write a profile of the kid and his dad for a gaming magazine. She interviewed them. Everything went well up until the dad started yelling around about the gays. He started yelling at my friend "You're one, right? One of those lesbians?" and kept on about it until she left in tears and confusion. (For the record: no, I don't think she is.) Naturally, she never finished the profile."
Chinaski wraps this up on a positive note:
"I saw him last week or so. He was nice. So was his dad, except it seemed like maybe the old man didn't want him talking to me. I don't know why. I was just saying, you know, I used to really love Zelda. It was my favorite game. Ok, I only had a few but it was my favorite. I don't think he's so extraordinary as to be legendary. But it's "the legend.." so I guess we must. Love what ya got."
