BBC's "Top Gear" guys paint "Hillary for Prez", "Nascar Sucks" and take a drive through the South US

With predictable results - pelted with rocks

[NewJeffCT]

1. replying now so I can find it later

youtube is blocked at my work, but this sounds funny.

[ghostsofgiants]

2. Hilarious.

[taterguy]

3. Would be funnier if they drove through Toronto with a hockey sucks sign

Of course they wouldn't do that because they wouldn't get out alive

[LeftyMom]

4. .

:rofl:

[TheMightyFavog]

5. They were lucky the local boys didn't bring their scatterguns.

End of Line.

[Pierre.Suave]

6. fuckin dumbasss rednecks

if I were there, I think I would have stayed and beat the shit out of them then claimed self defense.

[Little Wing]

7. My jaw dropped when they showed up all piled in the back of the truck

Now, it could have been a Saturday, but they were all available having nothing better to do. Then, there's six guys piled in a truck to defend Nascar.

*shudder*

[Taverner]

21. Perhaps they ARE mating with vegetables out there

[taterguy]

8. Like hell you would

Suppose you succeeded in beating the shit out of them. We've established that the backward South has a completely corrupt judicial system. They'd throw you in the clink and make you whistle while you dug ditches all day

[Pierre.Suave]

10. I would

I would not have run away.

You are talking to an Ex-Marine.

[William Bloode]

11. Oh thats funny!

I bet there was more than 1 ex-marine in that crowd as well. I always get a kick out of that ex-Marine line lol!

[Taverner]

22. Well if ever given the chance, after you knock heads RUN!!!!

Last thing we need is another lefty railroaded by Southern Justice....

[Reverend_Smitty]

9. Top Gear is such a funny show

There are clips on Youtube from when they took a caravan holiday and almost set the entire trailer park on fire

[skygazer]

12. Probably a setup

I drove all over the country - through some small towns in some very red states - with half a dozen inflammatory bumper stickers on my car and never even got the finger anywhere.

[T_i_B]

15. This was a bit more then a wee bumper sticker

We are talking about slogans pained all the way down the side of cars in the biggest possible letters designed as a dare to see who can get the other arrested or shot in Alabama.

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

34. We have too. We got the finger once, and got called a communist a few time. However, we got mostly

got pretty much support back here in the midwest.

[ronnykmarshall]

13. I'll watch more when I get home

The little bit I saw was great.

[T_i_B]

14. You have to see the whole programme

It was hilarious from start to finish what with Hammond driving his pick-up truck into an alligator infested river, Jeremy Clarkson with a dead cow on top of his sports car and so on.

The end of the show is the three of them arriving into New Orleans and seeing what a mess it's in deciding that they can't sell their cars in such a desperate place and giving them to the local mission instead. And even then James May couldn't get rid of his Cadillac!

[Little Wing]

16. Cool

I'll see about downloading it somewhere

[Dukkha]

17. haha! hilarious!

"I believe in certain parts of America now, people have started mating with vegetables"

typical redneck neanderthals exposed for their stupidity

[Anarcho-Socialist]

18. I enjoyed that

Didn't watch it on Sunday so getting me a torrent.

[RubyDuby in GA]

19. Did they actually chase them once they tried to leave the gas station?

Couldn't they be charged with some type of crime?

- trying desperately to remember why I was once proud to be a Southerner...

[TheMightyFavog]

23. IIRC the fact that the rednecks were throwing rocks at them should have got them arrested.

Especially if one of those rocks hit one of the camera crew..

[Pierre.Suave]

24. I agree

[RubyDuby in GA]

26. That's what I was thinking

Crazy redneck hicks think they can get away with anything just because you don't agree with them.

[redqueen]

20. I've never seen that show before...

interesting.

[Little Wing]

25. LINK to first painting part

[TheMightyFavog]

27. What got painted on Richard's truck?

I couldn't read it.

[name not needed]

28. "Manlove rules ok"

[TheMightyFavog]

29. that would get your ass beaten in some parts of the south.

That explains the cowboy hat on Richard.

[TheMightyFavog]

30. The whole bit. Including a better look of the words on Hammond's truck.

[Book Lover]

31. Just watched the episode

Laughed hysterically until I saw that they were actually driving through Pissant, AL, with those slogans on the cars. Whoever gave them that challenge really had it in for them...

[Oeditpus Rex]

32. I'm halfway inclined to believe this was staged

Holler shit at 'em, yeah. But call the good ol' boys, who come rollin' up in they pickup truck like it was Selma in 1965?

Truly. freaking. biZARre. :crazy:

[matcom]

33. "people have started mating with vegetables"

:rofl:

oh so true, so true
