    Closing ceremony, they are going to make it angry and set it free to help clear out the stragglers.

    Because would you rather have a giraffe wandering around E3 in the nude?

    I'm having trouble answering that question.

    Some questions don't need answers.

    But if I had to guess, I'm going with "Chippendales Show".

    Does the Guy's Choice have anything to do with E3? Cause I saw photos of Ben Affleck and Zach Galafinackis(?) with the giraffe in the background so it makes me think it was more for that then E3. Also, Geoff Keighley has a guy's choice entry badge on.

    At first I thought it was the new GB E3 banner.

    I hope it eats someone's hat on live camera.

    EDIT: Dude, is its mouth wired shut? Not cool! You're gonna put it through E3 and not let it eat someone's hair in retaliation?

    The truth is that during the Sony conference it'll be bought up stage and Kaz'll spank the giraffe and out comes the PS4. *The crowd goes wild.

    This is horrible. The animal is probably scared shitless and it has wires around it's head. There's really no reason for the animal to even be there. That's just messed up.

    My first thought too, what the hell are they doing? I imagine it's just going to be there for like an hour or something right? If they seriously have a Giraffe captive on the show floor for three days the only words that come to mind are "Stress Induced Heart Attack"

    That might be the weirdest meme that Jeff has ever spawned. And it's so great.

    @mikelemmer: I am super bummed out for that giraffe, but there is no way that its mouth is wired shut. Look at how it breaks up on its jawline, it's a shadow.
