Mike went to Versailles during his time in Paris.
1 of 8 went to Versailles with her visiting BFF a couple of weeks ago.
And among the gilded galleries of that fantastical palace was an art exhibit of, um, video games proportions.
For real.
Yes, it seems that some uber-rich video game character designer had rented him some space at Marie Antoinette’s old stomping grounds and set up his fiber glass busts of these guys…
Nothing makes that spotlighted old Pepsi-can-ensconced-in-an-evil-Pac-Man-mouth sparkle like 18th century damask wallpaper behind it…
Maybe I’m not visionary enough. Maybe I’m too predictable in my art display expectations.
But I really hate to see Rococo and Nintendo wrestle like this…
Maybe I’m being a bit hasty in my judgement. After all, that little guy up there does have a crown on his head, in keeping with the royal grounds and all….
