How many miles? (Car version)

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.

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.

That depends. Do you go back home after the game, or just stay at the game site until it's time to leave for the next game?
