Be careful out there, it seems like every year someone gets their Lotus egged! Just thought I'd post a reminder...

Do they really do that where you are. We used to have mischief night on the east coast the day before Halloween, papering houses, soaping windows, egging. MOved to LA, nuttin' no soaping, egging, nothing. They basically just do mild stuff like freeway shootings and such

I guess it really just depends on your neighborhood, it's never happened to me but has other board members

LA... I kinda thought egging would be popular there? heh

Funny,

kids fly right over my hood!

The Lotus and Porsche are inside and the Subie is doing the night shift on watch.

this is the only night of the year my car will be outside! Thanks to my stupid roommate who left for vacation and parked his car in front of the garage

I'm terrified, I think I may stay up all night watching over it, no joke

Haha... kids come to the door trick-or-treating, give the kids candy and the dad asks to see the car close-up because he sees it in the driveway. I open the garage and then 20 kids show up all at once... had to herd them all out and close the door again. Got the "is that a Ferrari?" and "you must be rich" from the kids.

Hollywood, just got a couple spits on mine parked in front of a hotel. A tiny bit disheartening, but certainly not damaging.

I used to have to park a car in my driveway (more cars than stalls)....I did a lot of decorating of the house too.....so what I did was make a dummy using old clothes stuffed with newspaper, throw it on the driveway, park the car on top of it and then put crime tape around it.....It accomplished 2 goals....it added to my 'haunted house'....and no one crossed the crime scene tape.

Great idea! Hide in plain sight.

I'd be sitting in a dark open garage with a 12 gauge, waiting. Let 'em try
