Foxtrot has actually referenced WoW alot. They had a running gag for a while about the younger kid being stuck to the game and telling his mom he was a mighty orc warrior and so didn't have to listen to her any more.

The pretty popular webcomic Cyanide & Happiness referenced the game, too.

I've seen these guys talked about on the WoW forums before, too. Even before they made the comic. Pretty cool.

indeed, foxtrot had wow references a long time ago. nothing new or special in my opinion there. that it appeard in jeopardy was special though and that they included that lame leroy thing was totally weird.
