Statistics show the crime rate in Cincinnati is higher than in many other places across the United States, although perhaps that could be about to change now that Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has bought a Batmobile. NFL star by day, caped crusader by night?
In the first episode of HBO series “Hard Knocks,” Burrow revealed to wide receiver Tee Higgins that he had acquired a limited edition Tumbler Batmobile from Warner Bros., who have put 10 up for sale.
“Have I told you I bought a Batmobile?” Burrow asked Higgins. “I don’t get it for like a year, but I bought it.” The quarterback then joked he should “go all in and go for the expensive Batsuit” too.

Tumbler Batmobile replica price and features
To mark the 85th anniversary of The Batman, Warner Bros. built 10 replicas of the Tumbler Batmobilewhich anyone with enough money can get their hands on, as long as they’re fast enough. The $2,990,000 asking pricehowever, may rule many of us out, but not Burrows.
Among its features are things you might expect such as a GPS system, 10-inch screens and air conditioningand other you might not, including ‘Jet Engine Simulation’ and a functioning smoke-screen system.
Buyers can choose right-hand or left-hand drive layouts and can personalise a number of elements of the car’s interior. But the Tumbler, which has a 525 bhp 6.2-liter Chevrolet LS3 engine, isn’t street legal.
