Mario Marathon 4: Get Some?

Gene Parmesan

Mario Marathon is a weekend out of every year where 3 guys (and guests) play Mario games in the name of Child's Play Charity. It's the fourth year in a row they are doing this, and we can make it the biggest year yet.Since this is PA forums I don't need to put a paragraph here driving home how important Child's Play is to some people. All of your donations go directly to Child's Play, the Mario Marathon guys see not a penny from it.
