Trophies in the back seat??

As a side note on this subject, what's with those little "dolls" people have propped up with their faces hiding on the bumpers ??????
Every time I see one on a Chevy, I want to put its head under the hood and close it with its goofy feet sticking out.
 
the only trophy that gets into my ride
is blonde and stacked!
the rest go in the trash..lol
 
The trophies from all the shows I go to are worthless. I go to club-sponsored events, and you see all the club members working deals with other club members to determine who is going to vote for who's car this time around. That's why I just show up, with my prep consisting of running the car through a quick automatic car wash on the way. I'm more interested in crowd response than trophies.

I have not noticed that (probably haven't payed enough attention), but I HAVE noticed that the club president ALWAYS wins.
 
Maybe they're enjoying the hobby more?
I can't help it. When I see the stuffed animals and the stuffed cryin kids, I'd like to take them all to a field, put them on one of those clay pigeon launchers, and do some skeet shooting.
 
When I attended car shows years ago, I had a pair of blue jeans that I stuffed with newspapers and sewed sneakers on its leg bottoms. At the show, I would lay it on the ground under the front end to watch people's reactions. I got everything from crying ("a man was run over" kid comment) to trying to see if the man was OK, and laughing when discovering "the man" was fake.

I did something similar at work quite a few years ago when I was servicing electric fork trucks. I was on afternoons, and I set up a 'dummy' in overalls and work boots, jacked up the front of a fork truck and removed a wheel. I pushed the dummy under the truck, and lowered the truck down. Then I scattered some tools and laid the jack on it's side to make it look like a tragic mishap. When my colleague turned up for the night shift, he couldn't find me, so he searched the truck bay.....only to stand there and say "OK, where are you hiding?" with a big grin on his face.
There was no fooling old Maurice, but he did agree it was a good prank. :D
 
I write "Don't Judge" on the windshield placard. Can't win anyway, and don't care. I want to enjoy the cars and social aspect, not lay on the ground shining the tires.

You clean the car, before you go to the show.
