Win 'Dark Knight' Tickets, See the Batpod!
Monday, June 30, 2008 at 2:50PM 
Here's something cool for our Big Picture readers in
Phoenix: Tomorrow, you can show off your impressive collection of Batman stuff
to win a pair of passes to see
The Dark Knight before it officially opens in
theaters. That might be a good ticket to score; advance sales have been very
brisk, outpacing current record holder Spider-Man 3 eight-to-one.
Now, if you don't want to bring all your Batman stuff
because you've built a to-scale version of Gotham City on your dining room
table, that's fine. Just bring a picture of yourself with all your Batman swag
and the crack panel of judges will take that into consideration. Show up at
Tempe Marketplace, just off the 202 at McClintock and Rio Salado, between 7 and
8am tomorrow for your chance to win.
There will also be cool Batman-themed contests and
giveaways all day...and you can take your picture with the new Batpod from The
Dark Knight (the bad-ass ride pictured to the left) as well as the Tumbler from
Batman Begins, which the layman would call the Batmobile from that film. Bet you don't have
those in your collections...
You can get a glimpse of the Bat transports and do the
contests and whatnot from 7 - 2 at Tempe Marketplace. Think I'll head out there
myself just to spy the Batpod.

Yeah, the Batpod (is that its real name?) is pretty cool. Does it come in a hybrid model? Or is does Wayne Industries not have a green mission statement yet? Time to get carbon neutral, Bruce.
Great comment, as usual, Will.
Yeah, I think Bruce has had some things on his mind lately. But when he finally does get around to that green conversion, I'm looking at that colossal mansion and wondering just how efficiently it's heated and cooled. My guess is his electric bills are pretty high.
