The '''Boom-bassa-boom Festival''' | The '''Boom-bassa-boom Festival''' was mentioned by [[Flavio]] in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He mentions it while singing the riddle to open the entrance to the [[Pirate's Grotto]].

[[Mario]] and [[Princess Peach]] can only trigger the game's one reference to the Gerbilympics by unlocking the [[Merlee's Mansion#VIP Generator Room|VIP Generator Room]] while paying off their damages in [[Merlee's Mansion]]. In the VIP Room, [[Ackpow]]s commonly insult their slaves by calling them gerbils, as work in the VIP Room involves running on wheels; this is compared to the normal, [[jump]]-oriented room where workers are called fleas. If the player manages to generate enough electricity to earn five thousand or more [[Rubee]]s in one work session in the room, the impressed Ackpow will pay them off and suggest that they, due to their incredible running skills, join the Gerbilympics. | [[Mario]] and [[Princess Peach]] can only trigger the game's one reference to the Gerbilympics by unlocking the [[Merlee's Mansion#VIP Generator Room|VIP Generator Room]] while paying off their damages in [[Merlee's Mansion]].

Little is known about the Gerbilympics. As it was mentioned only in a bizarre cross between an insult and praise, it is possible that it does not even exist. However, if the Gerbilympics really is some kind of strange sport in the [[Gloam Valley]] dimension, it is likely that it is a version of the [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games|Olympic Games]] (which the Gerbilympics clearly parody) fit for actual gerbils. | |||
