Mario Prom: Here’s to the Memories

Ah, prom night. It conjures up memories of corsages, tuxedos, and plumbers in red overalls stomping on turtles…waitaminute. Apparently, Chelsea High School held a Mario-themed prom, begging the question, just how many dorks are in their senior class? The decorators went all out too, creating several different Mario-inspired landscapes. But the pièce de résistance would have to be the giant working Nintendo controller that connected to a projector running the original Super Mario Bros.

What is wrong with the youth of today? I just want to know how someone managed to convince an entire senior class to go through with this. I personally love all things Mario, and I still would’ve thought this was a crazy idea.
