Mama Mia!
Point guard Mario Chalmers of the Miami Heat, who dressed up as the infamous Nintendo character during the team's Harlem Shake video, has tattooed Mario from the "Super Mario Bros." series on his arm.
As an added touch, the popular Italian plumber is palming a basketball as easily as Michael Jordan would palm a pumpkin.
The issue at hand isn't that Chalmers got ink of a video game character, but that it took him so long to realize that it would be an awesome thing to do.
Wahoo!
The 29-year-old averaged a career-high 10.2 points on 40.3 percent shooting in 80 appearances last season with the Heat.
