Batman Stories From The Boy Wonder Burt Ward | SYFY WIRE
Eye On Entertainment: Burt Ward Gets Star On Hollywood Walk Of Fame
---
The Caped Crusaders costumes were bright and tight-fitting to say the least, so snug that Ward incurred the wrath of the Catholic League of Decency.
“They thought that Robin had a very large bulge for television,” Ward told Page Six, although he promises that it was all him, unlike Adam West who played Batman.
“With Adam they put Turkish towels in his undershorts,” he explained.
The problem grew so tumescent that the studio had Ward see a doctor who prescribed medication “to shrink me up.”
Thankfully Ward quit taking the pills almost immediately.
“I took them for three days and then I decided that they can probably keep me from having children,” he said. “I stopped doing that and I just used my cape to cover it.”
