Slug Bug Expansion Pack
‘Tis the season for terrible road trips to see worse family, eat awful fruit cakes, and receive abysmal gifts. Thankfully, in the era of podcasts, Spotify, Netflix, video games, and Blu-ray, there’s no shortage of entertainment to keep your carpoolers happy. But, in the somewhat likely event all those things are still waiting under grandma’s tree half a country away, we’ve got a great addition to a family favorite: Blue Punch Buggy.
Also known as Slug Bug, this game involves friends and family committing light violence on one another in the car. When someone sees a Volkswagen Beetle, they are permitted to strike the nearest person on the shoulder and shout the catchphrase “Punch Buggy!” or “Slug Bug!” with impunity. This is all well and good, but when the holidays have already pent up so much anticipatory anger and stress, and with declining sales in Beetles across the US, the release valve may need to be opened up a little more.
That’s why we’ve created this expanded list of car models and accompanying actions in order to more fully and freely antagonized your “loved” ones. Enjoy.
