It's like a Brotherhood?

So last night I was driving around in one of the dorm parking lots. My roommate and I were going to pick up a pair of ladies to go out. I decided to go the long way and snake through the long parking lot to see if there were any camaros in the parking lot that I hadn't seen driving around campus. We actually saw a couple, including a Victory Red LS that I idled by slowly. I hit the brakes and my roommate looked at me and said, "What?".

I put my camaro in reverse and backed up a few feet and looked at the camaro again. I noticed something odd; the camaro's trunk was open. Just popped though. I looked around and saw no one, lights were off in the car, nothing happening. Then I realized this person surely suffered from the accidental trunk open with the keys in their pocket.

Now, I like to think I live on a safe college campus, but lord knows how easy it easy to get your stuff stolen, ESPECIALLY with your trunk unlocked and waiting for the nearest thief. So I pulled the parking brake up, stepped out, and closed the trunk for whomever that camaro driver might be.

I'll probably never meet said camaro driver, and I'm perfectly fine with that. I got back into my camaro with a good feeling of satisfaction and drove on.



Truth be told, I wouldn't do that for any other car. It'd be too odd or feel too sketchy to do that for a random car. But something about that person owning a camaro made me go out of my way to keep 'em outta trouble.


What's that called? Shared Perma-grin perhaps?

Too bad you didn't get there sooner to make sure the trunk monkey didn't escape :/

All kidding aside, very cool of you to do that and great story.

I did what I could man....
The owner will have to go a few days without a trunk monkey but that's the price you pay for being lenient....


And thanks
