Dr Tiki gets rickrolled at his own event at Forbidden Island watch!

youtube.com — After Dr. Tiki rickrolled me (and countless other Digg readers), I came up with a plan to rickroll him back -- in public, at his own event -- at Forbidden Island Tiki Lounge in Alameda, California. The video shows the set up, the rickroll, and his reaction.

  • AmICoolNow, on 04/19/2008, -0/+18I have nothing against people who are gay, please note that you aren't being dugg down because of that, but because it's horribly irrelevant.
  • fuzzmeister, on 04/19/2008, -0/+18Alright, here are the calculations. 20,000,000 people visit Digg each month (compete.com). Let's say that 5% of them donate, making 1,000,000 people. A Superbowl ad costs about $2.6 million for 30 seconds. So, each of those 1 million people would have to donate $2.60. Could happen, if someone actually organized it. The 5% seems just a bit hopeful, though.

  • Jassman, on 04/19/2008, -0/+6YouTube views aren't real-time. Which doesn't really make sense to me...
  • benjorino, on 04/19/2008, -0/+6http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=HbgM4sZtM4I

    Success!! :P
    They seem less than pleased... wonder why?
  • OdinEye, on 04/19/2008, -0/+5A lot of time was spent to get to that payoff...
  • tetfsu, on 04/19/2008, -0/+5We should bankroll it to Digg and let Digg take out a one min commercial... have it rickroll the fans in the last 10 seconds or something... that would truely be classified as an EPIC WIN.

    The only bad part is that I would in effect rickroll myself because I'd be watching for it. Which brings up a question... can you rickroll yourself if you know it's coming?
  • Xchus, on 04/19/2008, -1/+6I'm not your guy, friend
  • fjeirsou, on 04/19/2008, -1/+6You almost had me, but better sense prevailed.
