Urban legend tells of Keith Moon driving a Lincoln Continental into a hotel swimming pool, but that information is false: it was the Batmobile. Adam West and William Dozier (show creator) were on a cross-country promotional tour for an upcoming _Batman_ movie, and spent the night at a hotel across the street from Moon’s raucous party. Somehow, a drunken Moon was able to break into the car, release the parking brake and roll in into the pool. The cost of the damage: $4,000.00 ($1.4m in today’s dollars). ---
