How many miles? (Car version)

[Scrapper1]

Somebody started a thread about how many miles you run during a game. Here's a different question. How many miles do you drive during the season? I just added mine up from '08 (tax purposes, obviously) and I totaled 6,180 miles for basketball and volleyball.

I'm curious how that compares to people who have to drive much longer to their high school games.

Betwen Football & Basketball, rules and association meeting, etc., I average around 22,000 per year.

7,738 miles driven (not including meetings (x 8-10), and 148 games. I am ready for a break.

I can't answer b/c what I write here won't match what I put on my 1040

C'mon, who here would tell?

PS - I am one of the fortunate one's with close-in schools and games - last yr 130 games ~ 1400 miles.

I have no idea. My limo driver, Bambi, keeps track of all that mundane stuff.

*whistling* That's me filing out my 1040 every year. I have three sports, so I rack up some serious mileage: football, basketball, and slow-pitch softball.

Padgett, some day, ALL of us are coming your way to travel around with your driver. Oh yeah, we wouldn't mind working a game or two with you.

44 mile 'mean' average per game.

I thought Bambi was your masseuse. Get your story straight, Padgett.

As long as his story is the only thing that's straight...

My basketball mileage has averaged about 6,500 to 7,000 miles the last couple of years. I'm glad gas is about half what it was last fall.

Who cares what Bambi is to Padgett! At least he's sharing a peek at her with all of us!

My games are 70-150 miles per round trip not counting the few I do locally. BB and BSB.

1230 miles. I live in a small state, Connecticut, and our local board only covers about 20% of the state, which contains seventy different high schools. And, by the way, if anyone from the IRS asks, I never go directly from work to a game. I always stop home first to feed the cat, and to get my bag with my uniform ($5.00 per week laundry allowance) and equipment. There are about four schools within a stone's throw of the laboratory where I work, but, dang, I have to go home to feed the cat. She gets upset with me if I don't feed her her dinner on time.
