     QuakeCon 2006 (Page 7) - The Main Event, Part 2

This may be the last page, finally [Ed. Note: NOT!].  It only took like 2 months to get it all up here, huh? :P

     Magic Show

Or perhaps I should say, more technically, "illusion show".  Magic would be more like this.

It's not really magic...

So here we have the traditional "stick a bunch of swords into a box but leave plenty of room for a person to fit" trick.

Whipped.

Ok, this wasn't really a magic trick, but I don't think I had seen anybody use a whip in a magic show before.  The shows I've seen that involve whips... well, never mind.  The guy whipped two of those tasseled whatchamadoodles out of the kids hands and one from behind his back.  I mostly posted it because it was a nice action shot.  He used the whip for some card trick later on.

He's having a ball.

First whips, and now he's playing with his balls.  I do have a dirty mind, don't I?

Imagine I put something creative here.

I was going to say something about his prick, but I felt that would be pushing it a bit too far.

It's a man, baby!

And, of course, you can't have a magic show without the classic metamorphosis trick.  They actually pulled this one off pretty well.


     The Proposal

Disguised as the nVidia quick draw finals, one surprised "contestant" received something far more valuable than a $1000 prize.  His scripted opponent turned out to be somebody he knew... quite well.

QuakeCon 2006 nVidia QuickDraw finals?  Not quite.

She had something to say before the match.

"Will you frag me?"

How could you say "no" to something like that?  I mean, really.  Where do you get a girl that will propose to you at QuakeCon.  Sure ET:QW looked cool, and Carmack's speech was interesting, but this has to be the most far out thing I saw at QuakeCon 2005.  Except maybe Rubber Boy.  That will have to come on page 7, though.  I got distracted playing this so I need to get to bed now.
