Nice detail there!! I wish I could have seen it Hope your car is okay.

 

Same thing happend to me a couple of years ago, only the kids were college students, and they had eggs not water balloons. Needless to say I caught one of fatter slower ones, and ended up breaking his arm. Not a good idea BTW.

BTW the arm break was accidental, I shoved him and he fell into a fire hydrant, dislocating his shoulder and shattering his elbow joint. He tried to sue, but lost. Still a long ordeal.

 

lesson - see kids with water ballons...put up roof immediately.

funny story...glad it didn't happen to me...

Swurvydel,

Damn...crazy kids! But like RodneyK said...at least it wasn't eggs.

They were just screwing around...

 

That kinda sucks because they are just kids and no matter how angry you get...you can't really do anything to them.

Looks like you should carry a paint grenade in your car:





Or even better, get a paint grenade launcher:

 

You know Phantom....that's not a bad idea....I haven't played paintball in a long time....hmmmmmm....whats the delay on the nade?

 

Yes, I'm sure JAON410 would have just shrugged it off, laughed with the kids and calmly driven away with a soaked interior. Yeah, right.

 

Eh, you should have just shot them. As we all know, we're all gun-toting maniacs anyway. Why be any different than how we're perceived?

 

I don't know about you, but I played tag, kick ball, dodge ball, hide-and-seek for fun. As I got older I played sports for fun......disrepecting and potentially damaging someone else's property is NOT F-U-N!!! Had one of the water balloons ruined the leather, dented a body panel, shortted the digital dash...how FUN is that, hell how expensive is that!!!!

I kinda wish you would have caught one of them....now THAT's FUN.
