Because parents have money, young kids like crappy stuff like that, parents buy young kids crappy stuff like that.

I give lil kids more credit. I think some football fanatics will be scooping these up. Not your average fanatics either, I'm talkin uber fanatics here. :-)

I think i might have an idea why they started with these helmet cars.
The University of Missouri (Columbia) has an actual helmet car. It's a giant helmet on a golf cart, and it has flashing lights.

They drive it behind the endzone after touchdowns.

It's pretty funny looking, but i think this is the idea behind these bodies.

Alcohol can perform miracles. So in the context of beer and a football game I can see busting these out.
Still as corny as can be though. :-)

Yeah, those helmets really make a golf-cart a Pimp-cart. Kinda takes it to the next level.
