Jug Of Pee Thrown On Man's Jetta - From A School Bus
<snip>

One afternoon last March, Stan Crocker went out to get the mail from the front porch of his home on Yale Avenue in Maplewood, just like any other day. But when he saw the familiar yellow school bus rumbling down its daily route, something struck him as peculiar.
Normally the bus simply sped by, but on this day it crawled to a near-stop right in front of his black Volkswagen Jetta.

Near the front of the bus, a girl in a white T-shirt -- who looked to be about ten years old -- reached out the window, held a plastic Gatorade container aloft and proceeded to dump the watery contents over the Jetta.

"I was utterly astonished. I absolutely couldn't believe it," says the 36-year-old Crocker.

He ran back into the house, grabbed his keys, jumped into his car and raced after the bus.

"The kids were gathered near the back of the bus, flipping me off," Crocker recalls. "The bus driver looked like he was trying to get away, but he got caught behind traffic at Dale and McCausland."

Crocker got out of his car and knocked on the bus' door. The driver opened it.

"You've got kids throwing Gatorade on my car!" yelled Crocker.

2. When I was a kid in the 70s
I remember a friend of mine spitting on a bald guys head as he drove in his convertible. The guy got on the bus and smacked the kid around a bit without really harming him. The dude was pissed.

3. Could also be a nazi bus driver
I had one in middle school that wouldn't stop for upchuck, much less a pee break.

Anyone who'se worried about kids flipping him off from the back of a school bus needs to have his head examined. Plus, whether it's pee or gatorade, 5 seconds with a garden hose washes that right off.
