Notable: Link the Zelda Hunter
From The Stranger:
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2004
The week drew to a close with a very special event: a rare “Link” sighting. Also known as “Elf Boy” and “Peter Pan,” Link is a heavyset young man who is often seen between Capitol Hill and lower Queen Anne, always wearing a dark green tunic, a brown WWF-sized leather belt, huge custom-made tan leather boots, and little green cap (like Link from the Legend of Zelda). Guest Last Days once had the honor of sharing the #7 Metro bus with Link and his older gentleman friend, who spent the entire ride ranting and raving about poor people needing to get jobs. As a finale, Link pulled from his backpack what appeared to be a firearm at first but was actually a collapsible metal shovel, unfolded it, and began to wave it around, scaring the living Christ out of fellow passengers. Despite occasional spookiness, Link is still regarded as a sign of good luck, like a rainbow or a UFO: We spied him waiting for a bus on Denny Way, and Hot Tippers report that he’s frequently found at a local coffee shop, playing chess in full regalia. Keep your eyes peeled.

Link the Zelda Hunter spotted at Peet's - Corner of Denny Way and Broadway 102 days ago
I’ve seen this guy for years, and always figured he had a Tolkien obsession. Sometimes he’s smoking a strange pipe, and he always has a metal baseball bat tucked into his pack – where you’d figure a sword would go. Sometimes he’s with the old guy, but sometimes not. He frequently reeks.
He was sitting in the outdoor seating at Peet’s alone, smoking his pipe and drinking coffee.

HE WAS SMOKING A CIGARETTE!!! I’m not even kidding. I unfortunately couldn’t get a photo because I was in my car trying to make a left turn.

Link the Zelda Hunter spotted at Pine Street Bus Stop(in front of Bus Stop bar) 387 days ago
Along with his usual garb, he was wearing a Nintendo Power Glove and carried a large light gun rifle.
He was with his older gentleman friend who was ranting about Porky Pig having a cell phone. Link exclaimed in a disgusted tone, “Mario would never have a cell phone.” Then they started discussing the fireworks over Lake Union. Link got irate claiming “people are so scared of fireworks here, they have to do them over the water. Where I come from, they do the fireworks right on the land.”
Link the Zelda Hunter spotted at barnes and noble 2367 days ago
Link used to come into the downtown barnes and noble all the time, back in 2001-2002ish. i remember the first time i saw him, i couldnt figure out if he was cool, just autistic, or super ballsy. i now think its all 3. his real name is Daniel; something harmless and normal like that. he gets very annoyed if you call him zelda, and i cant recall him ever making a purchase at B&N, but my galpal who worked at Hot Topic told me he bought lots of zelda themed goods there. i CAN remember he had terrible body odor & would converse with the older man hes always with VERY loudly.

He was crossing the street by the Post Office. This time his rolling luggage was being attended to by his older gentleman friend / valet / personal male secretary. His beard is growing in and he seemed slightly annoyed, yet refreshed by the onset of Spring.
Link the Zelda Hunter spotted at Linda's 486 days ago
We were eating brunch at Linda’s when we spotted Link walking down the hill, across the street. He was wearing his usual hat and racing striped green jacket, and this time he had rolling luggage! Where could he have been going, I wonder? I guess sometimes Zelda Hunting requires lots of gear.

I spotted Link on Broadway about a month ago. He was talking to himself about games, I’m assuming role play (duh), and that sad state of those who play them. I walked beside for a little while.
