SpunkBall / Gang Hoax

        SPUNKBALL WARNING:

            I just wanted to warn all of my friends about
            something that has been occurring more and
            more lately, all through out the country.

             Groups of teenagers have been caught, in
            alarming numbers, playing a new and dangerous
            game called Spunkball.  Spunkball consists of
            a group of  teens in a car pulling up to a
            stop light, and looking around for a car
            stopped near by with an open window.  When one
            is spotted, the teens shout, "Spunkball", and
            throw a gasoline soaked rag that has been
            wrapped in aluminum foil threw the open
            window.  On the outside of the foil is
            attached a small fire cracker, with the fuse
            lit.  When the fire cracker explodes, it
            shreds the foil, and the rag is ignited,
            causing a large flame that may catch the
            interior of the car on fire. Spunkball playing
            has already claimed two lives, caused
            uncountable injuries due to burns, and caused
            thousands of dollars in damage to automobiles.
            The best defense, say authorities, is to keep
            all windows rolled up when stopped at traffic
            lights, as only cars with windows down are
            being targeted. If you are at a red-light and
            hear a shout of "Spunkball", and notice
            something come flying in your window, the best
            thing to do is to have all passengers
            immediately exit the vehicle.  DO NOT try to
            retreive the object, as it will ignite once
            the fire cracker explodes.

            PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU CARE ABOUT
