When Mario Met Brandon Walsh and Nate Archibald

The world of Nintendo gaming collided with the world of TV heartthrobs. Jason Priestley, best known as Brandon Walsh from Bev-Niner, and Gossip Girl's Chace Crawford met at the Nintendo World store over the weekend. While the event was for Mario Kart Wii, we like to think of it as the passing of the baton--or Wii Wheel--of one beloved teen soap drama lead to another.

Priestley is a racing enthusiast--he's part owner of a racing team. If we point out that Chace Crawford would have been 4 or 5 when Beverly Hills 90210 premiered...yes, you'll feel old.

Where can I get one of those carts!

Jason Priestley and Chace Crawford???

Come on Nintendo, you can do better than this

Look at the future Chace. If you're lucky this will be you you're playing video games with at age 35.

They make a lovely couple and should get married.

^It's a three-way with that "Mario" mascot. While not exactly a "furry", Mario nonetheless plays a similar role in the boudoir.(joystick not included)

Who they gonna get to do this for GTA IV? - Bernie Goetz and the LIRR shooter?

hahaha Jason Priestly looked like he had so much fun

Bernie Goetz is my hero. If more people stepped up to the plate and did what he did, there would be a lot more thugs second guessing.

Didn't he paralyze one of them? How unfortunate. And the victim's mother said he was such a star basketball player and the lead singer in the local church choir.

Damn. Look at that double chin on Priestley. He looks years older than 38.
