Who throws a pop can at a car?!
So I'm driving home from Applebee's in Maple Grove with a buddy of mine. We're on Hemlock, just about to turn off, and I see one, maybe two younger people walking on the sidewalk near the street. All of the sudden, something hits my car.. So we get out and look and notice there is some sort of liquid on the back end of my car and my buddy says, "This smells like Dew!". So we do a quick drive around and go back to the spot. Sure enough a fresh can of dew is laying down on the street. Who does that?? Luckly there wasn't any damage. Well anyway just feel like I should warn anyone who drives on Hemlock at night. Beware of flying popcans..
Has anyone else had any weird experiences while driving similar to this?

The only time shit like that happens to me is when people are being dicks and get cut-off.

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
In my area, our cars have been hit with beer bottles... My car didn't get hurt but my parents cars did. We don't even live in a bad area... Pisses me off... and what is worse is that we had to pick up the glass.
My favorite beer can story was that 4 young girls were driving down the streen with music blasting in a lancer. They were throwing cans out of their window and the cans were blue and silver and the only cans that I know of like that are beer cans. I followed behind wanting to lay on the horn because I don't like trash on the road and they kind of pissed me off. However my turn was coming up to go to work so I pulled into the right hand turn lane behind this black car. The girls were going straight at the stop light and threw a half drunk can out the window just barely missing the black car. The black cars lights turned on pulled out of the turn land and stopped them... it was the police... busted... it made me happy...

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
Yeah I've had a couple thrown at me. Whats with people now days? Talk about short fuses...
First time some dude was tailgating me so I slowed down to about 30 in a 55. I guess this really pissed him off, because he then pulled up ahead of me screaming the whole time and tossed a full Dew on the front of my car. Luckily it hit just in front of my car and all I got was a sticky hood to clean.
Second time I was in my friends car sitting at a light and I looked over at the car next to me and this kid was just flipping out at his girlfriend. So I just kinda looked to see what was going on. Evidently this pissed him off, so he then leaned across the car (his girlfriend was driving) to roll down the window and tossed a can at our car.
Watch out for all the douche bags in Apple Valley.

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
Drove out to pick up my g/f a while back and drove by some drunks around a big fire. As I drove up, one of them started walking out and punched the side of my car as I slowly drove by. I'm like WTF? Who the fuck does this?
I called the police, they came out, but just horse shat around. Was only my laser, not like a show car or anything.

I don't know about you but I would seriously flip out on anyone who would punch my car and meant it... If it was an accident fine... but if anyone is looking to hurt my car, I will hurt them back...
That and thieves...they also deserve an ass kicking

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
This reminds me of yesterday, although nothing was throw, I merged onto hwy 55 in GV and some dude who was really far back flew up and went around on the left like 2 inches from my (gf's) car. so I honked cause it was fairly unnecessary. He gave me the finger, then I flashed my brights a bunch of times. If I had been by myself I would have followed him home and broken his fucking neck.
At least that's what I would have felt like doing. I suppose all that revenge stuff depends on the car, he was in some accord or something, us in a slow ass kia. If it had been my quest, not only would the situation have been avoided origionally because of the amazing acceleration the quest has, but even if he did the same thing, i could have flown up on his ass and given him a taste of his own middle-finger-medicine.
that bitch.

I don't know dude, it pissed me off at first but come on, what am I going to do? I'm a scrawny 18 year old and these guys are drunk big rednecks.
I was more stunned than pissed that he did that. Was weird.

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
People are stupid. Some kids were foolin around in New Hope/Golden Valley a few years ago and hit my 1g gsx with a water baloon. I didn't know what it was but it hit my car so I swooped behind them and chased them bumper to bumper through NH with a Dew can in my hand. I was about to hit em back and they stopped and I scared the shit out of them.
Lesson of the story.... yeah I'm not sure... carry dew in your car?

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
I've had an apple thrown at my back windshield. Luckily it was only an apple, but I was still pissed why people would do something so pointless. I know which part of the block it came from, wanted to do something about it...but didnt want my family to get the worst of it. Not the first time they did something stupid like that to us.

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
 that and then when people do stuff to your car. I came out of the movies and had parked my car a little farther out from the doors so it wouldnt get any door dings, right by a busy road so people wouldnt mess with it. Well I guess some punk ass teenagers thought it would be funny because they had put condoms over my mirrors, window wipers, on my fmic, roof, lifted the door handles and put them over those and just anywhere that they could. Since they were on for so long it took a really hard scrub and wax to get all the lube off... now talked about pissed
oh yeah they also jacked one of my corner lights and busted it in the parking lot

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
I was at a friend's wedding one night. My buddy got into a fight with his g/f, then as she was walking away in the parking lot, he threw a can of Coke at her. The can missed and bounced of a minivan parked in the lot. I don't recall any significant damage, but I was wasted and laughing uncontrollably.

That's one of the older CKY videos I think with Bam Margara or whatever.
Pretty stupid.

Re: Who throws a pop can at a car?!
i have had this happen on the freeway after the bar a couple years ago, and we tried to retaliate but i guess my friend did not realize gravity and it just came back in my car and landed all over her.
