Back in the day, to pass the time, we played Slug Bug while driving.
The rules were simple:
Use your fist to punch your opponent when you saw a VW Beetle! If you punch first, you win a point! The one with the most points wins...nothing (except maybe a less bruised body).
Fist
Plus
Equaled Hours O Fun!
Today, one can not find many bugs, so my husband and I thought it would be fun to make up a similar game using something we see a lot while we drive around these parts. We are in Texas, there are many Churches, so we chose Churches as our subject. We found we were hitting each other a little too frequently, so narrowed the topic to Churches of Christ only, as to honor Ahimsa(Non-harm).
While searching for Christmas gifts, I think I found the perfect gift for my husband, in honor of the game we love to play so much.

LMAO! That's hilarious! One of my Course students gave me a button that I LOVE. It says, "Jesus loves you. But I'm His favorite!"
I never even heard of the slug bug game growing up. Then, a couple times, as a young adult, friends started playing it with me by hitting me in the arm when I wasn't expecting them, but it ended when I let them know I'd hit back regardless of whether there was bug to be seen.
Given what I suspect is taught in a lot of those churches, they might actually approve of your game...as long as you hit a homosexual, Muslim, or woman who engages in sex outside of marriage...
