    been playing against myself, trying to pick which 'trough' i want my cap in. Its not easy.
    F'n hoot. Rule is you have to let go outside the bedside, and you can 'shoot' from either side.

    question is, do i score this like darts? Each trough has a point value. Top up/top down is +/-? Or just number the troughs and try for 3 in a row.

    theres bound to be a math nerd willing to give it a think.

    Truck bed game. Keep cig butts & bottlecaps from being littered.

    say it got scored like a dartboard, and whether they landed upwards or downwards, they'd be a pos or neg addition. If someone catches you fouling its double neg.

    winner gets boss hat @ cleanup. Or free dinner, or whatever.

    Pic is me trying to aim for 3 in a row, and i throw too hard. Trick is, flip the lid like a coin, and they'll fall pretty close to each other.

    I really need to get a life.

    Here’s the rules…

    -2 players take turns throwing caps from side of truck. 3 tosses per turn.
    -Whatever trough cap lands in you get that many points.
    -If the cap lands Top side up, point value is doubled.
    -If cap lands in any CAB trough, that player must chug a beer before continuing.
    -First one to exactly 111 points wins. Final toss must land on the 1 pointer.
    -If you go over 111 points, your points resets to points you had before that turn started.

    you’ll need a pack of multi colored electrical tape.

    Shooting from one side or another? Or maybe switch sides?

    Plus, bonus 75 points if you can get one to fall down into the cut-out hole in the bed liner at a tiedown.
