Ready Player One! Grab your beer and steal those laundry quarters from your roommate for a couple rounds of beer Pac-Man! This classic yellow hungry fellow wants to go all in and have a few pints. The Ghosts are stoked because they never have to hide from a drunken Pac-Man. The corner dots don’t work in this video-game-inspired painting, instead they have become special power-up beers. Pac-Man thinks he is suave and debonair once he swills a few of these down, but after a six-pack of the yellow fizzies, he is slow and unresponsive. Not quite a “Game Over,” but definitely a “Bed Time” is happening soon. Another factor is that after a few of these digital pints Pac-Man thinks Ms. Pac-Man is a perfect 10!
