Famous Boise Landmark Is To Host A Batman Dance-Off
Yes, you read that correctly and we couldn't be more excited. Just imagine the visual of seeing the Caped Crusader throw down in a dance-off against another Batman or better yet... one of his infamous villains.
It's as epic as it sounds.
A Night in Arkham: Batdance Edition
The cosplaying community is strong and what we love about it most is how inviting the community is. The folks over at Gem State Comic Con are hosting this legendary event next Saturday, November 4 and you better believe there will be prizes for what they're called the "Batdance Competition."
And that's not even the best part! According to the official page for the event, it will take place at Old Idaho Penitentiary.
Why the Old Idaho Penitentiary?
If you're like some of us who grew up on the 90s Batman cartoon that would air after school or maybe you're simply a fan of the Batman film franchise, you might recognize the name "Arkham."
For those who don't know, that's the name of the asylum where most of Batman's villains wind up. We have to commend Gem State Comic Con for choosing the Old Idaho Penitentiary as the backdrop for A Night in Arkham: Batdance Edition, it makes a ton of sense and the Old Idaho Pen is perfect for it.
Make sure to get your tickets online though, you won't be able to get them at the door according to the event's official page.
The Old Idaho Penitentiary is never short of attention; as a matter of fact... a horror movie was filmed there and actually wound up on Amazon Prime. Have you seen it?
