Anyone else playin punch-mini

Kinda like punch-buggy... When I'm driving around with my 6 year old, we look for other minis and slug each other when we see one, saying "red mini"!!

It amazing how many are around south florida...

No, but now that my wife just got her new Clubbie, she keeps looking at it saying 'MINI!!'. Funny how it's not retarded any more like when I do it. I give her about 10 minutes into her first drive before she starts doing it to other MINI's on the road.

It was a fun family thing at first when it was just punch-buggy red or punch-buggy yellow. Now this little driving game has expanded to whack-whack-Cadillac and bang-bang Mustang. My whole family is black and blue. We do call out the MINIs that we see put do not inflict bodily harm on each other.

Hubby and I also call out Mini's when we see them and what color, even down to which one, but no punch as yet

my wife in her CR MCS plays along with her young niece and nephew (since we have no children) for the following:

VW's (old game)
Minis (new game)
Pontiac Vibes (her previous car)

I am not sure if they actually punch though

My kids and wife love the "call and punch" game (I always lose as I am the one driving and tend to be distracted by other drivers )

My husband and I play this all the time. Unfortunately, it keeps me from waving at other Minis I see because I'm too busy blocking or trying to punch. Also, I now have the urge to punch whomever I'm with, which probably wouldn't go over very well.

Funny. My two kids do that in the back seat. I had no idea they were punching each other until one day I'm alone with the little one and she calls out "Red Mini, no punch back!", leans forward from the back and punches me in the arm.
