Apparently, a challenge was issued on EN World that went something like this:
I see your Betty White, your Bea Arthur, and Estelle Getty and Rue McClanahan, and I raise you ALL of them playing D&D with Wil Wheaton in the middle of an iconic D&D bar fight, framed in bacon…
Even though I haven't really done anything for games, gaming and gamers, it's equally weird and awesome that someone on EN World (a site I've read forever) thought to put me in such esteemed company.

This is a prime example of many layers of awesome. Rose would be an excellent DM. Love it.
(Dun-dun-dun-dunn) Thank you for being D.M…
Mind. Blown.
Great, now I’m hungry, horny(*) and I want to roll up a half-orc cleric-assassin.
(*) May be unrelated to above picture – I can only hope so.
Haven’t done anything for gamers?! You are the ubergeek, you represent us all!
This staff is a good one.
Apparently, bacon really does make everything better. And by “better,” I think I mean even more disturbing.
Betty White is soooo the Dungeon Master!
when can we order the framed posters?
This pretty much sums up the strangeness of being famous, I would think.
You have done much for gamers – you’ve more than earned your place at that table, hehe 😉
Glad you enjoyed it!

I love that Blanche is cheating LOL
That’s better than a velvet Elvis!
Now, if they were all having some cheesecake it would be perfect. Of course, the world might just blow up because of all the awesome…
Bea Arthur does that to the best of us, man.
I have looked upon the image, and no I declare it good.
Tawabbawho? It just proves that Instant Awesome is, in fact, possible.
Betty White is DMing? Y’all are fscked!
It may be weird, but at least he didn’t pull the dead meemaw card.
T-shirt or it never happened.
Replace the golden girls with the Sports Illustrated swimsuit models, or Victoria Secret’s models and you have a better betting chip. By the way, the bacon is a nice touch.
What I like is that all the supplies are 4th Ed proper. I would have gone with classic 2nd or 3rd ed. But I suck at Photoshop.
That has so much wrong and awesome in it. I kinda want one.
Framed in Bacon no less. That to me is the best part.
Epic things like this are the reason why photoshopping is a gift to humanity. Bravo to the creator!
It’s epic, that’s what it is.
I think we have found the end of the internet.
That’s…just…wow…I…wow…brain cramp.
Haha, “Even though I haven’t really done anything for games, gaming and gamers” eat that GamePolitics 😀
This is fantastic on so many levels, I don’t even know where to begin.
Last night, I went to see John Water’s Christmas show and during it, he spoke of many things – including all the things he wanted for Christmas (the most depraved of which I longed to give him) and the things he wanted to give his fans for Christmas (the most depraved of which I longed to receive); however, that list has now been replaced with instead a seat at that table. Also, a plate of bacon.
Rue needs to back off, she’s all up in the DMs screen. That definitely wouldn’t fly at my game table.
This. In velvet. Thinkgeek’s newest best-seller.
Maybe you haven’t done anything for gaming directly, but a lot of your tweets about games like Munchkin and others made me want to get back into it after a 30 year absence. I’m now playing GURPS every week with my wife and Tomb and D&D every once in a while. I’m sure a few gaming companies owe you some thanks for unintentionally boosting sales.
This is the best thing… EVER! And I agree with Glitterisafoodgroup, cheesecake would make it that much more awesome… and probably blow up the world. I would TOTALLY buy this as a t-shirt. If anyone actually decides to create such an item please let us all know. 🙂
