Or, “Happy Remember the Templars!” day, as I like to call it. This is a veiled reference to my home state’s call to arms –”Remember the Alamo!” And what do the Templars or the Alamo have to do with Friday the 13th?

Fair warning, the quality of the video isn’t that great due to the time of evening and the low light.
Enjoy!
P.S. – if you aren’t a bat person, keep scrolling.
Are you a bat person or not? Let me know in the comments.
