While there's a chance fans watched it as a child, this time the experts at Penn are asking the adults to join in on the fun!
In this take on the hit show, Legends: Penn Museum Edition, set to take place on Wednesday 20th April 2016 from 6pm to 8pm, staff from the Penn Museum as well as five other Philadelphia-area museums await attendees at stations throughout the galleries and grounds-testing guests with a variety of challenges, from knowledge competitions to scavenger hunts and more, just like in the show. Attendees will join familiar, colorful teams like the Blue Barracudas and the Orange Iguanas, before departing into the Penn Museum's galleries to embark on an adventurous series of activities. Along the way, you'll meet with staff from the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, the American Philosophical Society Museum, Eastern State Penitentiary, the Mütter Museum of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia, and the Wagner Free Institute of Science - all on hand to test competitors' physical and mental acumen!
Fierce participants will gain points for their team by completing various challenges during an action-packed, 30-minute window of head to head combat competition. To heat things up even more Temple Guards from various cultures will be where you least expect them, waiting to capture you while on your way to victory!
