My guess is they were in another row, SAW the space, and he had her jump out to run to the space while he drove around.

But everybody knows the space always goes to the person lucky enough to get their car there first. This is like cutting in front of people in line.

However, the boyfriend should have been close, so you wonder why he didn't get their and threaten to beat the guy up for hitting her. maybe he had a wimpy car or something. Or maybe he found another space on the way and parked, and was walking to get her.

A serious question -- if a protestor was blocking your way on the road, and refused to get out of the way, how many people here would nudge them with their car to try to "convince" them to stop blocking the road?

How is that so? After all, oftentimes this is something done in frustration after spending too long circling and not getting anything.


Oftentimes the person you see as "at fault" was ACTUALLY there LONGER than the person who seems OK. In the great big picture, it's often justified.


This is alot like me an my frustration with multi-line bank drive-thrus which don't make people file out from a single line. You have to choose 1, or so it seems. When you try to insist on "1st come, 1st served" by creating a single line to feed the multi-lines, someone ALWAYS gets huffy and drives around to choose some line. As a result, and whether one created a single line or not and just chose a line, one gets screwed as the person who was in the bank area LAST gets to go to the teller FIRST. That is not justice, in my book!

I think the boyfriend was either getting Coors Light or hitting on a cheerleader.

Yeah it's a tough one. 25 year old girl guarding parking spot. Me, I'd keep looking...but most people circling an NFL parking lot want to get the 1st spot they can so they can start tailgating.

I doubt he ran over her foot. If he did she'd have injuries, and a case.

Towing the guy's car? Come on now.
