Dumb As A Blog Dumb Caption Contest: 'Holy Hoop Hooligans, Batman!' Edition
I realize that not all of you out there are as old as I am or were raised in New England like me. So before you caption this photo, you should probably know that this picture features four of Batman's most famous arch villains from the camp classic 1960's television show, posing with, for reasons unknown, Hall of Fame NBA coach and executive of the Boston Celtics, Red Auerbach.
(Fun fact: the spell checker on our blogging program suggested I spell his name "paperback.")
Why he is posing with these vicious criminals, I have no idea (he did regularly commit the heinous crime of smoking indoors) but perhaps you can piece together what these nefarious characters are up to.
Write your best caption to the following photo in the comments section below, and if it is chosen by a jury of your peers to be the finest, you will be the proud owner of a Dumb As A Blog T Shirt.
Now let's see those captions!
