Apparently someone made off this evening with the Super Mario statue outside VideoGamesNewYork at 202 E. Sixth St. at Cooper Square...

Thank goodness for the Grievestrator! I see him!
The Mario-naping supersedes the phone-snatcher as "Public Enemy Number One." This calls for a Police guard tower on E. Sixth at Cooper Square. Children beating spackling-compound buckets should protest the Mario-naping. DeBlasio will be around in a day or two to display his concern.
I love that this damn store is there and its classic awning.
Maybe Mario got tired of all the noise and dirt from the construction and went to a quieter, cleaner place on vacation. Check his Uber account to see where he went.
What maroon would steal Mario ? Where's the ransom note ?
PIX11 News covered this last night - with no hat tip to EVG, of course.
