The Superfriends at SeaWorld
09/17/09 at 4:51pm

I had mentioned this on the "Who would win, Hulk/Superman" thread and I just found the pictures. This is from 1978 (I believe) at SeaWorld Orlando. They had a Superfriends waterski show, with mostly Batman villains. It was great at the time, ah heck, I would probably still enjoy it. Here are the pics that I have. They are not great, taken with my old 110 camera. Enjoy

Aquaman & Mera

Batman & Robin holding Batgirl w/host Jimmy Olson in the foreground

Catwoman....meow!

The Joker with Jimmy Olson and Supergirl on the far left coming into the picture

and the finale... the Superfriends pyramid with Supergirl holding the U.S. flag

I also found this link to some better pics.

I hope you enjoy.

I was so excited back then to see it. The costumes were not the best, but seeing Batman & Robin was huge to me. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.

I saw the same show but at the Sea World in Ohio.

There was an elephant they put on skis and noone to this day believes me! An actual elephant skiing behind a boat.

My dad took several photos and we still have them but the elephant is misplaced. Cry

Here are home movies shot at an Orlando SeaWorld show.
