Apparently so. The AP reports that the University of Oklahoma freshman trounced 70 year-old Hershel McBride to become the mayor of Muskogee, Oklahoma, making it the first city in the nation to be governed by a self-admitted gamer.

I hope he likes empire building or tycoon games...Sim City stands out in particular.

Oh no.

If he likes Sim City like how I like Sim City this can only end one way.

With absolute destruction and flaming wreckage strewn about a toxic wasteland...

Best laugh I've had all day.

I actually used to live near the town that the "mayor" is running. It really is not a surprise.
