Dead Rapper Disrupts Yahtzee Workshop
April 15, 2012
** Reporting live from Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival **
A popular Yahtzee workshop at Coachella was postponed in the chaotic aftermath of a surprise performance by dead rapper Tupac Shakur. Appearing as a hologram, Tupac dazzled festival-goers with a raucous set from beyond the grave. The advent of AI video generation, deep learning systems, and Yahtzee online makes a future explosion of the dead celebrity genre a near certainty. The Yahtzee workshop was rescheduled for the next day.

Day 3 at Coachella is officially a wrap, and the star of the show has been dead for 15 years! Tupac Shakur appeared onstage as an Obi-Wan-esque glowing hologram from beyond the grave. The unanticipated set made waves as the holographic rapper performed alongside Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg to a rapt audience. The spectacle caused such a commotion that the World Yahtzee Institute was forced to postpone its popular workshop, “The Hidden Harmonics of Yahtzee”.
The holographic performance shocked viewers but is not the first time that a dead celebrity has intervened in Yahtzee related activities. Unlike the disturbance caused by Tupac’s digital shade other, still-living celebrities have had more positive relationships with the game. In the 1960s, for example, TVs The Odd Couple, Jack Klugman and Tony Randall, served as popular Yahtzee spokesmen and appeared in several advertisements. And in 1995, Super Mario famously engaged with the game as the master of ceremonies in the video game Mario’s Game Gallery.
Apologies to our readers who were expecting a write-up of the workshop results in tonight’s blog post. It seems like Tupac has released a new album each year since his death – it was just a matter of time until he got on stage again. We’re just sorry that the timing has wreaked havoc on our full schedule of programming at Coachella this year. The workshop will be held at the same location next Friday, April 20th at 9:00.
Until then, enjoy a game of online Yahtzee or brush up on your Yahtzee strategy.
