Default Almost Got Wacked At Walmart

Yesterday we went for a cruise down the valley to visit some family. On the way down we stopped at Walmart to buy the dogs and cat some grits. As we are walking out to left field (don't like parking near that entrance) i noticed that the vw jetta that was parked in the row above mine was now resting against a car in the row below me. I was lucky that it missed my car but not so lucky for the old guy that was walking up to his car.Well the old fart looks at this car pressed against his and then just jumps in his car and tries to back away from it. Well as soon as he backs away from it the jetta starts rolling again so i bolt over there like superman and stop the car from hitting him again. Then the old fart drives off leaving me holding this car from rolling down to the next row. :mad I help the fart and he strands me holding this car. Anyway i can't leave the car to roll away so i tell my girlfreind to grab a buggy and we wedge it under the front end. It kept the car in place so we drove off. I can imagine when the yahoo gets back to his jetta he's going to think"OH MY GOD MY CAR ROLLED AWAY AND IT ONLY RAN OVER A BUGGY" :crazy:

The old guy probably thought it was your car that rolled into his. You're lucky he didn't get out and hit you! :D

Nice work!

This story has nothing to do with the CF but it shows how stupid some people are. I was watching a family (husband,wife,two kids) launch their boat at a local lake, the husband backs the boat into the water (on the trailer) then gets on the dock to hold the boat so his wife can pull foward with the van, she hits the gas and backs the van into the lake (all the way under) the boat was still straped to the trailer so it went under as well, the husband forgot to let go of the rope so in he went. the whole family came swimming to the shore...as sad as it was i still peed my pants laughing :lolg: :lolg:

chrply, I'm sorry for the misinterpretation. I'm calling the owner of the VW a moron for not setting the parking brake

Well, some of us do like to go shopping for groceries and such...

I'm sure most of us on the Forum have used their Vettes as a grocery getter at least a couple of times. :cheers:

I would have had the wife bring the vette over, I'd give the VW a quick shove, and jump in the vette and escape to a safe distance and watch the damage ensue! :crazy:
