Shatnerball report!

[Gunga]

First of all, thanks to Darren aka Gambit1106 for hosting a BBQ on Friday night for a bunch of his fellow AO/Borg bretheren and sister (Capo)!!

After waking up waaaaaaaaaay to early (about 4 am), I arrived at CPX around 6 am and found myself waiting in a 3/4 mile long line for parking. DOH! But eventually, I got in and got a spot. The pregame trash talk began around 7, with Tom Kaye aka the Borg King doing most of the talking as Shatner & Mancow were delayed.

Here's a picture of TK yelling out at Mancow and Shatner, egging them on to come and take on the fearsome Borg Collective!

[Gunga]

Here comes Shatner!

The Borg Queen (aka AO's very own CaPoEiRa) models out the lastest in Borg fashion.

Here's the lineup of the various tanks brought to the event.

Another tank shot

And the best tank of all!

[Gunga]

Here's why it's the best tank of all!

[Gunga]

The AO Nexus of the Borg Collective!

[Gunga]

Here's the final pregame pep talk to the Collective - just before we went forth and assimilated the Klingons!

[Gunga]

While the Collective was taking it to the Klingon Empire, who shows up but the hated Federation...sneaking up on the rear of the Collective!

[Gunga]

Leading from the rear, the 'cowardly' Admiral Kirk and his 'Red Shirt Brigade'...so much for leading from the front lines!

[Gunga]

Later in the day, the Borg & Klingons (Mancow's the one with the walkie talkie) made an unholy alliance...teaming together to crush the Federation scum!! The Federation was so disheartened and overrun that Admiral Kirk requested to start negotiations. Hah!

[magman007]

wow, red is a really bad idea for a jersey, jeez, didnt they learn from the english? and wasnt kirks arigional shirt yellow? I wouls have hated to be on the federation, with bright red shirts!

[Gunga]

Well, why did the Klingons decide to team with the Borg? Just look at what we did to one of their tanks! They learned not to mess with the Collective! Resistance is Futile!

[Gunga]

This is what happens to those foolish enough to resist the Borg! Or in this case, one of the tank gunners, 'Weltman'!
