This is too cool for words.
Crooks beware! Batkid is fighting crime Friday in the mean streets of San Francisco.With the help of the Make-A-Wish Foundation and the city, 5-year-old Miles Scott, aka #SFBatKid, will rescue a woman from cable car tracks and capture the evil Riddler as he robs a downtown bank.
A flash mob will then summon the leukemia patient for another caper — the diabolical kidnapping of the San Francisco Giants mascot — Lou Seal — by the Penguin.
A grateful mayor Ed Lee will give Miles a key to the city after the crooks are corralled.

Great story. I hadn't realized how deeply involved the city was to make this happen, along with the other parties involved.

I got choked up reading about this, a whole city contributed and for most it didn't cost anything more than the time it took to have fun being part! I haven't been to SF in years, but the sense of community for a city that size left a lasting impression on me. Norcal in general is so friendly I wasn't used to the feeling. Go Batboy! :D
