I’ve been waiting with this one, but it seems to be a local news only item for Lake Delton. [Someone stole this lady’s rubber duckies.](http://www.wiscnews.com/wde/news/437743) They weren’t shoplifted from a toy store or kids play area. No. They weren’t stolen out of an unlocked car. They were stolen not from inside the car but the outside of the car. Some idiot drives a car covered in glued on rubber duckies.😃 > [@](#): > > The two walked to her vehicle, and according to Horkheimer’s report, approximately 12 to 16 large rubber ducks were glued to the roof of the car and another 20 to 30 smaller ducks were glued to the hood. > > The ducks on the roof were mounted with glue and had silver balls glued around them. The ones on the hood were glued to greenish-blue glass to appear as if the ducks were on land or water Any other funny stories are welcome in this thread. ---

They should have had a photo with that article. You can’t have something like that without a photo. I can’t top that. We do have a car in the area that has plastic horses and dolls glued on the outside and inside. I haven’t seen it for a while, but every time I see it, it has more stuff glued on it. I hope they use a really strong glue so nothing comes off while they’re cruising down the road. I’ve also seen a trash car. It’s filled at least 2/3 of the way full with empty fast food bags and cups and plastic takeout containers. There’s a space for the driver, but I don’t see how they keep the rest of the trash pile from falling into the driver’s space. Maybe it’s a weird performance art project or something. ---

I agree. I want a photo of the rubber duckies car. It would be interesting. ---

I was also very disappointed that there was no photo. I’m sure the reporter had no way to get a photo, because they probably did the article when they saw the police report. The lady is from Madison, so maybe someone will see the car and take a picture. ---

There’s a car here in town with all KINDS of crap glued to it. A lot of it’s religious. I’ve never managed to get a picture, though.
