Sketch artist and painter Bob Dob created these mug shot illustrations of famed video game characters Mario and Luigi. In his series titled ‘Rough Night Out,’ Bob Dob features Mario and Luigi after a somewhat serious scuffle.
What remains unknown is the cause of the injuries. Did Mario and Luigi turn on each other? Or was it one of those scary flying turtles that did the damage? Either way, it’s obvious that the infamous duo came out as the victors, even if they may face jail time.
