Default Crowded Corvette

OK, my 11 year old son and I were going to meet a friend and his son for a round of golf, and then meet our families for dinner.
Well after the round I found out that his older son had dropped them off
So now we are down to one car, my 89 coupe. So the boys climbed in the back facing backwards with their backs on the back of the seats. Then the adult bags went down the middle and the junior bags went across their feet.
I was glad I had the hatch extension. We did tell the boys to not tell their mothers and not to waive at the police
Anyone else had four people and their golf clubs in their corvette? I must say I would not recommend this but it will be a great memory!!

No,never had that may people in the car. When I go to a show the chairs,coolers and assorted other items tend to get a little much. I love when I have the top off and the papers are flying out the roof and going all over the place or otherwise flying around the interior.

We had 9 people and a seeing-eye dog in a VW once.

I wish I could take my vette with us when I take my 11 yr old son golfing but we can't even fit one bag and us in a vert.

This reminds me of a story that I read on the forum several years ago. A guy actually used his ZR1 for family vacations. He and his wife sat in the seats. One small child sat in a car seat that was secured in the hatch area. And the two dogs sat somewhere with the luggage.

I'm assuming the driver was the only sighted person, hence eliminating anonymous claustrophobia. The dog probably didn't care.
