Schoolbus Derby

Two high schoolers broke into a school bus lot and trashed the place. While that wouldn't normally qualify as a story, they did do something that made headlines. They got into the school buses and rammed 45 of them into each other. The article speculated they were playing destruction derby, but I disagree. I think they just played too much Vigilante 8. While I don't condone vandalism, I don't blame these kids. That sounds pretty cool. And it only took two of them. Impressive. I wonder which was Player 1 and Player 2.

Vigilante 8 was like a wannabe Twisted Metal right?

Yeah, V8's hook was that it was set in the 1970's. See the link in the post. It was a fun game with nice graphics (for the time period) but not as nihilistic or demented as "Twisted Metal." And it had a schoolbus as one of the vehicles.

Dear Sir,

What's wrong with nihilistic and demented?

Man that sounds like a lot of fun if it wasn't so insanely illegal. Good posting.
