Nintendo is set to celebrate 20 years of Kirby by attempting to break the world record for the most people blowing a chewing gum bubble simultaneously at PAX Prime 2012.

On Saturday, September 1 at 1 p.m. PST, PAX Prime attendees can begin checking in at the Washington State Convention Center Expo Hall Queue Area, Level 4, Room 4A. The event is scheduled to run from 2 p.m. 3 p.m. PST. The previous record is set at 304 individuals.

In addition to the world record attempt, those involved will have the chance to win prizes and interact with a Kirby character.

In order to participate in the event, you must have a PAX badge.

I've never been to PAX or anything but it's nice to see Nintendo actually doing something unique for the convention.  Don't they usually just throw a few E3 demos at it?
