Bonus points if the driver gets out and is dressed like batman. I was going to say dressed up like a Lego minifig to go with the toy theme, but that costume wouldn't fit in the car.

Oh man I am about to bring a downer but it’s too specific not to. We had a dude that dressed like Batman and drove a lambo that visited sick kids for years in Baltimore. He unfortunately got killed when another driver hit his broken down Batmobile.

I never knew that happened to him, that is super sad. He was a very good dude who made a lot of people happy.

Lost my nephew to cancer a few months back and we have a picture of him with someone in the Batman costume (super high quality too!) who was visiting the kids in the hospital. Cherish those kind hearts that try to bring some joy to these sick and dying children.

Cops stopped a Lamborghini one time with driver dressed as Batman who was going to a hospital to see sick kids. He took pics with them all. It was in a YouTube clip I think

Reminds me of the Batkid documentary. Such a touching story.

I was going to comment on the local PD that kept the parade on the rails.

Kudos to them as well.

Imagine being the cop on that traffic stop

"Sorry sir, I thought you were a Blackman, not a batman!"

u/FullStackAnalyticsOG Feb 19 '25

Didn't even think of that. Younger me would've stroked out if that happened 🤣

u/adventurepony Feb 20 '25

imagine trying to explain that. "i'm not fucking kidding Brayden. Batman was at my house and he drives a hot wheels lambo."

Nuh-uh, Batman was at Jordyns birthday party last month, and he drove an icecream truck!

Oh that was a much needed giggle. 😂😂😂

I think if I saw someone dressed as a lego minifig as a child, I'd probably have nightmares for life. Probably better to stick with Batman.

u/ScarletDarkstar Feb 20 '25

Some things are very weird when they are "life size". I have seen the real train that is Thomas the Tank Engine,  and it is extremely creepy. 

I'd like to think a lego minifig would be a little less so, but you never know.

Newark NJ PD had an officer in a tricked out Camaro in an EXCELLENT Batman suit, doing outreach events. Very cool.
