C'mon, Matt. You can't possibly be the only guy who never saw that
crash footage. Ol' DE Sr. was at the bottom of the track when he got
guided wallward, in blatant disregard of his own advice. But he was
blocking for Mikey & DE Jr.

He & Stern are right. If you're gonna play this game, you gotta play
it *right*. That means parking so damn close that the original space
hog won't even *think* of getting in on that side. That means as close
as the thickness of their door. so when it's opened, the door panel
doesn't clear the opening. On a good day, I can get close enough so
they can't *walk* on that side.
