Spent Monday running, jumping and wheezing in a publicity affair promoting the new Wii Mario and Sonic Go To The Olympics. Like child's party meets sports day it was compered by Stuart Hall himself who kept a running commentary through megaphone sometimes breaking out in some fierce MC-ing. At least, I hope the stuttering effect stemmed from intentional means.
The suits smelt of vomit - I suspect they were the original 70s Its A Knockout Props, saturating with generations of overwhelmed child's excretion.
Team Mario won with able help from the Stuff boys and some retarded flapping about from me. 
More photos at UK Resistance. Mario doesn't look so hot cos someone got overexcited from the winning team, forgot an actual person was inside the costume and whacked him over the head with a bottle of prize champagne.
