I dressed up as Mario for an event at my gf's work where the employees brought their families to trick or treat around the office of maybe 3k employees. I realized before I left that Mario drives a red Kart and is from a Japanese video game developer. Well I drive a flashy red Japanese sports car with a baller sound system so I figured I'd lean into it. I put on the Super Mario Bros theme song and blasted it as I pulled up and all the kids went NUTS. I was honestly surprised how many kids wanted a picture with Mario compared to costumes that I thought were way better, but it was cool putting on my best Italian accent and telling kids to "stay in-a school or you'll become a plumber like-a me!" (no disrespect to all you plumbers out there).
