Dad Plays Real-Life Pac-Man With Son: Cute or Corny?

Pretty soon video games are going to be so real you'll hardly be able to separate them from reality. Just take a look at this new edition of Pac-Man. You don't even need a console to play it! Just a young child, a couple of bags of marshmallows, and blue tape. Hair spray is recommended but not required.

Alright, technically it isn't a video game. It's just a father getting his son to act like Pac-Man. Nathan and Jen Glemboski convinced their son to gobble marshmallows off the floor and chased him through a maze of blue tape.

We were especially impressed by the kid's yellow shirt and sprayed yellow hair. Talk about attention to detail. That and the Pac-Man sounds really drive home the theme. We were a little disappointed in the layout, though. They could have at least set up transporters at each end of the room. Those are essential escape routes. Although that tape isn't quite as limiting as it should be, either.

Oh well. It's still cute. Next time, Glemboskis. Next time.
