Gaming Meme History: Leeroy Jenkins

I remember when that dungeon was able to have more than 5 people in it. CAUSE THAT S__T WAS HARD!

leeeerooooooyyyyy jenkins hahahahaha

I've never raided in wow, I only ever made it to lvl 70 once on a undead rogue like 3 or 4 years ago. I kind of want to once before I die

THAT'S where it started? That was stupid, and not the funny kind of stupid just the dumb kind of stupid that you want to forget about as soon as possible. How did this ever catch on? I never had a problem with the Leeroy Jenkins thing, but now that I know the whole story, it's remarkably, fantastically, impossibly dumb. Worst meme ever.

best quote of all time!

LEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY JANKINS!!!!!!!!!!

I'm still curious if the Phantom Leeroy in DarkSouls is a reference to this....pretty sure it is. lol

I thought this was really funny for a while, but I've kind of forgotten about it over time.

I was hoping that this was a video about all the gaming memes that have sprung up over the years but it was a good video, I guess ;)

And yes, Leroy Jenkins is classic and forever will be - whether you like/liked WoW or not, that raid video was so funny and epitomized the pain-in-the-ass of grinding that could still be fun, even when you got wiped out. I'm pretty sure this meme's going to be the one that will be commonly referred to in the future when people look back at this time period that we live in.

WoW is retarded

I actually knew someone who was in High school who was one of the players in the team here. I didn't get the impression that he thought it would get this big. He was just a regular person.

This is the only thing about World of Warcraft that I know of, and let's face it, everybody did a Leeroy one time or another.

man, she's hot

.

What's that on your shoulder???

I still do laugh at this meme. 

Wow, they're actually using a real Gaming MEME this time.

All I have to say is Date me!

Yeah it's so funny when Leroy does it. But when I do it.... Oh I should get kicked out of the raid.

Did not find it funny when it happen .. and still not funny years later.. still absurd..

Say what you will but as far as i'm concerned its still funny.

This MEME was CRACKED as FAKE

So this guy sucked soooo badly that he is now awesome??

This one was funny, but 50 DKP MINUS! is my personal fave.

I like to pull a "Leeroy Jenkins" once in a while. Don't knock it 'til you've tried it.

So, it's official; there is no more original humor on the internet so we're forced to dredge up stuff from 8 years ago? Leeroy was funny when it happened, but I don't see any reason in looking back on this. It's sad when the internet has followed suit with the film industry and is no longer capable of producing anything original and instead copy old stuff or introduce "anniversary" editions or throw-backs. The world's really fallen apart these past 8 years.

Just like all memes, it was funny the first time untill attention deprived children got their hands on it, and abused it's worth.

The funny thing is, the first time I saw this I said in vent to my guild.. "you call that a train? where the hell are the blackrock orcs from above? I know I could do better than that!"

Making a gaming meme tribute video about this is just like making a great hockey players series episode about wayne gretzky

Finally! This is the one I've been asking for! Its the ultimate classic gaming meme!
