Sights on the road

On a 1000 mile stretch of road, you are bound to see things that make you go “hmm.”

This is what we saw.

Within 30 minutes, we saw two cars worth noting. The first:

Had 5 tomatoes in the rear window, ripening in the sun. “Hmm. Interesting.”

The second car?

I’m guessing cantaloupe.  In which case, I did not know you could ripen melons in the sun, let alone in your rear window. “Hmmmm……”

Next up, we passed a truck with a trailer full on ablaze. Couldn’t tell what was in the trailer but it kind of looked like furniture. I felt bad for them.

Shannon said it looked like a classic case of flicking a cigarette butt out the window and it catching on the trailer. Hope that wasn’t the case.

Next, is just plain….”?!?!?!?!?”

It’s a little hard to see in the photo, so I will describe it in great detail. A car club of crown vics. One outrageous model was lime green, was on 30” rims, with Lamborghini doors. How do I know about the doors?   Cause he had them open. On the highway. In bumper to bumper.

But that is not the car we are looking at in this picture. In the photo above, we see a white crown vic. It’s on some big rims too, but not that big. What really makes this car “special” is that it is a rolling advertisement for Family Guy. Yes, that “Family Guy.” It has door sized images of Peter Griffin, lots of quotes all over, and on the back as you can see…on the bumper…”Giggety Giggety.”

I didn’t even know African Americans were a demographic of family guy fans. (Duane doesn’t count.)

It was a rolling DRATW. Full on

Ok.  So that was crazy. Shannon and I laughed, and laughed. But this is not the best one. The best one?

This guy:

Clearly a Florida Gators fan, big time. The kicker? The plastic display case siliconed to the hood containing an actual gator head. The kind you pick up at your local Taxidermist.

He wins. hands down.
