Retro Metro

Posted on by Bart

During the Christmas holidays, we’ve paid a visit to Stockholm. In many cities, the metro is a dirty place, only useful to get from one place to another.

But in Stockholm, many of the metro stations are real pieces of art. There’s an underground cave, a rainbow station, and so much more.

But my personal favorite is the Thorildsplan metro station. It features artwork inspired by retro 8bit classics like PacMan or Mario.

We didn’t really need to be in Thorildsplan, but we’ve visited the metro station just for the artwork alone. And it was worth it!

Want to know more about our trip to Stockholm? Be sure to check my post about the biggest geek shop ever, and about the games we’ve played during our visit.

If you are familiar with Lord of the Rings, then you have probably already heard of Gandalf the Grey, Saruman the White, or maybe even Radagast the Brown. And perhaps you even read somewhere that there are even two more wizards, of which even Gandalf doesn’t remember the name anymore. But did you know that there is a sixth wizard called Bart (referred to as Baruman by some)? While the other wizards were fighting wars over a single ring, Bart was collecting hundreds of rings playing Sonic the Hedgehog. Furthermore, Bart used his Palantir to watch Star Wars instead of challenging Sauron. And finally he visited the libraries to study ancient lore, mostly found in comic books. Now however, Bart has grown up, married a sorceress, and they have two sweet little hobbits. You can follow Bart’s adventures on geekstuff.blog.
