[LET’S GO FAMILY (REAL FAMILY UNIT)]
Male and Female; 13 to 75 years old; ALL ethnicities

THIS POSTING IS FOR REAL FAMILY UNITS!

Please submit with your full REAL Family! We’re looking for a family of teenage kids, their parents and a grandparent. An unassuming, blue collar family. Former or current athletes or real sports fans, actors or ‘real people’, interesting and unusual faces rather than stereotypical ‘commercial’ looks. Mom is the hero. The kind of Mom who comes prepared for a day like this. Tissues. Sunscreen. Hand-sanitizer. Snacks. She’s got it all in her bag. She knows this is the last time they’ll get a chance to enjoy Universal together before the kids start heading off to college, so (like a coach of a team playing together for the last time) she feels the pressure of making sure they get every last ounce out of the day. The Teens (13-18) are more background as far a Mario is concerned, but they’re still somewhat impressed by the whole spectacle and know it means a lot to their Mom. Dad is into it and ready to go – he played the very first Mario Kart and like an old pro brought back for one last season, he’s ready to win. Grandad is a bit more nonchalant. He’s been here many times over the years and knows how to play it.
