This is what happens when Conan O'Brien, Lil Wayne, and Tony Hawk play a video game together
 
 
As one does, to celebrate the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5, Conan O'Brien got together with Hawk and Lil Wayne for a marathon gaming session. Lil Wayne is actually one of the stars of the new game, having bonded with Hawk over their love of skating. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 may have exciting features like exploding heads and skateboards on fire, but O'Brien still had plenty of suggestions for the next version, including: "There should be a place for the avatars to get snacks." For all the gaming that was going on, there was also a lot of talking about tattoos, chatting about Hawk's flannel-wearing avatar looking like he might have "killed some people in the Pacific Northwest," and "that's what she said" jokes.
