San Fran BatKid

Saving the day while raising the spirits of a major U.S. city was pint-sized Miles Scott, 5. Miles is in remission from leukemia, and, thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, managed to turn his obsession with comic book heroes into the real thing. Well, almost. There was no way Penguin was going to get away with anything on Friday.
Thousands of San Franciscans responded to an avalanche of social media blasts, lining the streets wherever Miles and a full-sized Batman swooped into action. At Hyde and Green streets, there was a damsel in distress to rescue, and the bat duo arrived in a Lamborghini with Batman decals. At 550 Montgomery St., a burgled bank vault needed to be liberated. And at Union Square, there was a hamburger to down.
 
Just a great story for this little dude. Miles had leukemia and as his Make-A-Wish, he wanted to become the real Batman. Fucking badass I know. Going on to save a few people and stopping the Riddler and Penguin he kicked today's ass big time. The turnout was outstanding in San Fran to see this kid defeat anything that stood in front of him. Touching to hear. It just goes to show not everybody can save the world but the ones who actually try will...
 
I'm a bat!
