The Long Awaited HOF Semi Final Runoff Heat #1

Sign in to disble this ad
Vote for 5 of the 10.

After numerous requests from my long suffering fan base
(thanks, Joe Gress!), we continue with the project of
determining the final standings of the TB Classic Thread
Hall of Fame
heat, and quarter final winners.

In a contest of the asinine, sublime, esoteric, ridiculous
and the merely stupid, let the most idiotic win!

Get your semi final votes in for this heat now!



In this corner, in the retro Saints uniforms, we have the
outlandish winners of quarter final heat Nuuumber One.


51- I have a HUGE problem and need help asap!!!
And we mean HUGE!

5- What The Hell?
Yeah, what's with THAT?!!

7- Farting at a Show
By definition, includes the Fart 2 thread.

69- I'm coming out of the closet.
So much fail, it wins. (Note, this is NOT the xtreo thread, that will be in the
next semi-final.)

62- PACMAN BASS (PMB 1000) CLICK! Pics!......FINISHED!!!!!
Just when you thought you had seen it all... this comes along.


And on this side of the field, in the retro Vikings uniforms,
looking like Mark Failson - generally sleepy and needing a nap - are these gems:


35- Photoshopped TB'ers
Yeah, this one is gut-splittingly funny. Drinking coffee while reading this
is contra-indicated and management cannot be held liable for any resulting
damages.

17- NTB Vs. Parrot
Needs no explanation. Go get a new vac bag.

1- Pile Drivingly Heavy
A strong showing by the beloved NTB.

26- part of my nut went flying across the room
A couple of sigs came out of this thread along with the nut.

14- Tara Labs Cable Challenge
The classic pre-Beltist thread on tone improvement.
Makes Monster pale by comparison. Don't take my word for it,
just try it.


This is going to get tough to decide now, these are true
classics from the board.

The best 5 move on to the Finals, so GET YOUR VOTES IN!

I had to vote one of the NTB threads...I've been feeling nostalgic for the old days...when you couldn't open an OT thread without a linkin park pen or a good NTB rant.

Just for the rest of you you can vote for multiple choices.

It is ideal if you vote for 5 of the 10

+1. I am so torn.

I'm revisiting all these threads again while I ponder my vote. Good times!

FWIW, I miss NTB. How could so much fail fit into just one individual?

I can't believe I didn't find TB earlier than I did. I missed out on years of fun.

If you take the time to read those threads, you will see that
you either lack total win or total fail. That isn't necessarily a
bad thing btw.

are you sure that's the right "coming out of the closet" thread? that one is the transvestite thread, there's also X-OREO's love connection with his guitarist,which was much more full of win, especially considering X-OREO's subsequent interior design thread.

51, 17, 1, 35, and 69=winner.

EDIT: I thought it was the other coming out of the closet thread, that one is far superior to this cross-dressing nonsense.

The Xtreo thread was in quarter final heat #4 and was the top
vote getter. That will appear in the second semi final.

You are correct, they are not the same thread. Apparently
more than 1 TBer has come out of a closet here with interesting
results.

Readers duly note these threads are not the same threads.
Since these HOF threads are top picks, you might want to
reread some of them for your amusement. I can't read anymore
of these today as I got a cramp in my side from laughing too hard.

Plus my co-workers think I have lost my mind. That is not news
to them though.

Any more votes? There are only 28 voters so far. Not much for such a huge site.
