Back in 2006, Kotaku reader Ryan sent a photo of a Yoshi snow sculpture he spotted. It’s 2011. Ryan spotted another sculpture.
Violinist Lindsey Stirling has a whole bunch of YouTube videos in which she “rocks out” on her violin. She does that on her latest video, but this time she’s dressed as Link and playing Zelda music.
