This was posted by Fang on tad, I thought I should share it with everyone on here...
I just wanted to warn all of my friends about something that has been occurring more and more lately, all through out the country.
Groups of teenagers (wearing jelly bracelets and having just returned from rainbow parties) have been caught, in alarming numbers, playing a new and dangerous game called Spunkball.
Spunkball consists of a group of teens, whose mothers died after smelling a free perfume sample that was mailed to them, in a car pulling up to a stop light, and looking around for a car stopped near by with an open window. When one is spotted, the teens, who are eligible for a $1400 settlement from Enfamil and Similac, shout, "Spunkball", and throw a gasoline soaked rag that has been wrapped in aluminum foil threw the open window.
On the outside of the foil is attached a small fire cracker, with the fuse lit. When the fire cracker explodes, it shreds the foil, and the rag is ignited, causing a large flame that may catch the interior of the car, which may or may not have people hiding in the back seat from when the drivers paid for their gas, on fire.
Spunkball playing has already claimed two lives, caused uncountable injuries due to burns, and caused thousands of dollars in damage to automobiles. The best defense, say authorities, is to keep all windows rolled up when stopped at traffic lights, as only cars with windows down are being targeted. Also, please remember to If you are driving after dark and see an on-coming car with no headlights on, DO NOT FLASH YOUR LIGHTS AT THEM! This is a common gang member "initiation game", and the first car to flash their headlights at him is now his "target". He is now required to turn around and chase that car, and shoot at or into the car in order to complete his initiation requirements.
If you are at a red-light and hear a shout "Spunkball", and notice something come flying in your window, the best thing to do is to have all passengers immediately exit the vehicle. DO NOT try to retrieve the object, as it will ignite once the fire cracker explodes. Also, please remember to never use a Slim Jim to break into a car, or the air bag will explode and kill you!
PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU CARE ABOUT.
I don't care if it's fake!!! The point is that is COULD happen and why not post it to make people aware? I for one am glad that I heard about it.
I also posted something similar last year about people who walk outside being prone to alien abduction and rectal probing. Again, I don't care if it's fake or a hoax! I just want to share the info- just incase.
So, PLEASE refrain from posting how this is fake and not to worry! I realize that is possible- just trying to keep people safe.
Happy Holidays!
