First time, 456, then several strikes (it really does help if you keep your eye on the penguin), then 489.3. Cute one!

I hit 587.1! It took a while to figure out that the key is to hit the penguin low enough that he skids.
The best I have gotten on a "hit and stick" is just shy 500 (496.1).

Gotta be the first to break 600! Am I trying to hard when I can gues about how far the penguin will go at the "crack of the bat"???
I got 593.5ft yesterday and have not been able to surpass it since. I hope this isn't as far as you can go  But for the pop-em-up and stick I got a 493.5ft as a high, and for the lowest footage at bat I got 162ft

Couldn't top 560... quite fun and slightly addictive!

I could only guess that they're something to help prevent deer from coming in front of your car while driving. Close?

Skittles, you guessed correctly. It's up for debate how effective they are.
Gotta give props to comedian Steven Wright for that tag! That's a good example of his style. He also said : "i wrote an unauthorized autobiography. When it comes out, I'm going to sue myself."
