‘Margaritaville’ to Become Facebook Game. Yes, The Song.

We’ll give you a minute to check the calendar, because we assure you this is not a joke. Well, not in the sense of we made something up. This is a joke, it just actually exists.

Is this Jimmy Buffett just cashing in on the one song everybody knows as he bitterly grinds away at a music career that has become a brutal self-parody? No, this was the idea of game developer THQ! This is their precise description:

“An immersive 3D paradise full of frozen concoctions, music, and adventure.”

So basically THQ is making a Facebook game where you virtually go out, get drunk, and do something stupid instead of just actually going out, getting drunk and doing something stupid. But either way you’ll be listening to terrible music.

Well, at least it’s not Farmville.
