WoW tribute planned for croc wrestler

Wednesday 6-Sep-2006 3:55 PM The late Steve Irwin looks set to receive a memorial tribute in the uber-popular MMO
Plans are afoot to mark the unfortunate passing of Aussie crocodile hunter Steve Irwin with a memorial service in World of Warcraft.

WoW participant BubbRubb is currently trying to drum up support for the venture: "I propose a memorial service at the serene ocean front setting of the Zoram Strand. I would like to spell out CRIKEY with players as a tribute to his wondrous catch phrase, and then we can dance and swim in the ocean to celebrate his life instead of mourning his death."

A noble and fitting gesture indeed, even if the mood of the forum thread is slightly spoilt by a rather amusing spoof Combat Log purporting to register the great man's demise. As BubbRubb points out, it offers the perfect opportunity for Horde and Alliance alike to pay their respects to a much-loved (well in Australia) personality.
