YETI Night 2012

WOW. It's not every day you get an email like this:

Dear Yeti Lover,

Just wanted to share a photo album of pictures from our YETI Night at the American Mountaineering Museum. We host an annual event called YETI Night, complete with Great Divide's Yeti Beer, Yeti Cycles giveaways, Yeti mask making, and a Yeti costume contest.

We stumbled across your blog while we were planning the event and figured you might appreciate this.

You'll notice that one couple in particular went ALL out with their Yeti costume. Believe it or not, he actually made that from scratch. Quite impressive!

Hope you have a great day.

Shelby Arnold

That's AMAZING! Here's a sneakpeak at what you'll find in the event's photo album, which I encourage you to check out :



My mind is officially blown.

Yeti Arcade: Invizimals

I wondered a couple of years ago whether one of the Invizimals was a yeti...

Turns out I was right!

Not Yeti Friday - Arctic Bullymong

The upcoming video game Borderlands 2 will feature a creature called an Arctic Bullymong. Some preview screenshots reveal a mighty, hulking four-armed ape-beast of the tundra what reminds one of yeti!




I for one applaud the designers for including a yeti-like baddie in their game. I also applaud them calling it a "Bullymong", which is a pretty decent name for a mighty, hulking four-armed ape-beast of the tundra what reminds one of yeti.



You know what these four-armed yetis on another planet remind me of? Why, the four-armed yetis on Mars (See previous Not-Yeti post) from Edgar Rice Burroughs' classic Barsoom novels! I wonder if it was a deliberate nod.

Coincidentally, I am currently reading the first in the series (Princess of Mars) in anticipation of the new film. Incidentally, I recommend this New Yorker article.
