Around nine or ten days ago, Canadian news outlets covered a story about an iPod causing an airport scare. In it, we are told that a poor passenger accidentally dropped his iPod into the toilet, clogging it. Eventually, suspicion overtook the airplane's staff, prompting a landing and subsequent investigation of the man who dropped the music player and an incursion of the local bomb squad into the airplane to retrieve the "mysterious device."

Well... how is this related to World of Warcraft?

Apparently, a WoW player inadvertently caused the whole scare, and chose to relate his tale on the World of Warcraft forums. The whole story is quite long, so let us sum it up for you.

Basically, he went into the bathroom with his iPod. He left the bathroom and, some time later, flight attendants were going frantic because a toilet was clogged with something. Then he realized his iPod was missing.

Eureka! That's what was clogging the toilet.

Unfortunately, procedures to land the plane had already been called for, as well as the police and the bomb squad. The entire flight was evacuated, and he eventually underwent an interrogation. Eventually, the questioning led to his reasons for being on the plane.

His response? "I was to visit a friend I met on World of Warcraft, Cara." He then had to explain the idea of an MMORPG and a guild to officers, so that it wouldn't be misunderstood as some terrorist threat. The interrogation continued until he was eventually cleared.

Poor guy. All because of a love for WoW and music. On the bright side, he now has the first legendary thread on the new forums. The thread's currently on page 22, so you may want to hurry and read the whole thing before it gets deleted for being too long.
