Pigeon Squish

Dear Fellow Crush Addicts,

I would like to share a couple of my favorite Crush memories. But I ask that everyone that reads my favorite live crushing memories will share theirs with me..

1) The Car Wheel;
When I pulled into the parking spot I noticed this pile of feathers in an empty parking spot I also noticed that the spot right next to it was empty as well so I circled my car around and I positioned my self so that my driver side widow was directly lined up with the pile of feathers that was sitting in the vacant parking spot next to me. I rolled down my window to examine the dead bird and noticed that it was in perfect shape and that it was a full grown pigeon. I decided to sit there and wait for a car to pull in next to me and then I would be able to see it get squashed right in front of me.. The thought of that gave me chills.. I must have starred at the pigeon for like 5 minutes and I tried to picture it's current shape as much as I could thinking about how rare this was for me to see.. Then I noticed a big car getting ready to pull into the spot.. This is the truth, The car had a young girl I'd say like 15 and a half with her grandma in the passenger seat of the car. The young driver looked very inexperienced behind the wheel and they were both looking down at the front right side wheel of the car trying to avoid the bird, at least I think. I watched in total excitement!
The front tire did miss the bird, DARN. Then I noticed that the rear right side tire of this big and heavy car was headed right for the pigeon.. The young woman driver was just inching very slowly into the spot. I could hear the wheels creaking on the pavement as she rolled forward so slowly.
Would you believe it the rear tires missed too.. The next part was very unexpected. They sat there in the car for like two minutes talking and then the driver started to back out of the spot. I couldn't believe it. So I fixed my eyes right on the bird and I could hear the tires creaking again as the weight of the car pressed down onto the hard pavement. She was going so slow again and I looked up just for a quick glance at the driver and I noticed that she was starring at me and the grandma was looking down at the front right hand side tire. So I tried to ignore her stare and got back to looking at the pigeon.. This time the rear tire missed again, BUT as she was turning the front wheel so sharp it was headed right for the head of the pigeon!!! I fixed my glare to focus fully on the slow crushing wheel.. With the drivers tire started up the bird starting with a POP for it's head the girl stopped right there and I looked up at her and she was still starring at me..
Then she proceeded and that tire SQUASHED that bird soooo hard and I could hear it's guts and bones crunching and popping from the slow moving weight.. It was awesome. After all of the damage was done she stopped the car and started getting ready to take off and I noticed that her and her grandma both looked at the squashed pigeon with a look of satisfaction in the grandma's face and a look of cuirousity in the face of the young girl.. I will never forget that, ever. I did get out of the car as soon as they left to see more closly the damage and it was very flatened and messy.

Well I hope you all enjoyed that, please share your favorite story with me..
