Batman pulled over by cops

Great story from my neck of the woods about the police pulling over Batman. A wealthy businessman with his own batmobile and costume who travels the area helping kids? I love this country.

"So, you going to use that one call? Or do you not have any family you wish to inform of your arrest?"

*Slaps the cop*

"My parents are dead!"

Couldn't resist, but that's pretty awesome. Maybe a bit unhealthy for him, but for those people he helps that must be pretty interesting. Very cool find Bef.

One of the articles also says he's currently spending $250,000 on an actual batmobile for this. Pretty excited to maybe run into that thing out on the road. Imagine it coming up in your rear view mirror.

You see the batmobile come up behind you and it opens up. Suddenly you hear glass break as a bat hook sticks into your back window and a dark figure glides to your car. He climbs across the top and punched through your window and grabs you by the throat.

"Your left turn signal is still on, just thought you should know."

That is nothing short of awesome, I wish I could actually see this for myself.

If it were me I would have gotten a disorderly charge too, because I wouldn't have stopped doing the batoosy the entire time.

Here's a follow-up Q&A the Post held with him today.

I can't tell you how refreshing this is, particularly for a city as jaded and sardonic as DC.

That guy just gets more amazing as time goes on it seems.

They posted the video today of the traffic stop. The cops end up taking pictures of him and singing the theme song lol.

I would have offered him a police escort, then I probably would have gotten fired haha. I kind of feel like on the next episode of Conan O'Brien I'm going to see this guy, he seems to be getting pretty popular for all the cool stuff he's done.
