Internet star “Tron Guy” will be walking, driving or suffering in cattle class on the way to ROFLcon next year, if his 15 minutes aren’t up by then:

Another high-flying internet dream is crashing into economic reality: Jay Maynard, aka Tron Guy, is selling his customized airplane on eBay (costume not included).

Maynard, a 48-year-old computer consultant who shot to internet celebrity for dressing in an elaborate outfit based on the classic sci-fi movie Tron, says he paid about $140,000 for the plane when he bought it a year ago.

“I dearly wish I didn’t have to sell it, but I don’t have any choice in the matter,” Maynard told Wired.com by phone Monday.

Jason, don’t worry about this happening to us just yet – I’m only like two months behind in payments on the LOLFed Ben Bernanke Edition Roflcopter.
