In the spirit of Hanukkah get a photo of your VW next to a menorah or a spinning dreidel.

Not a fair response since I can't play right now. I had to pull my engine and tranny.
Here in Atlanta, most of the NightClubs" only have valet parking and they are not the type of "NightClub" I would feel comfortable showing up to much less parking in front of and getting out with my camera.
Be that as it may, there are bars around that are open at night and have live music. Do they count?
I'm old. I remember the nightclubs from the Disco days and the Rave days. The Hip Hop/Rap/Trap/Boody Dance days, I have no experience with.

I didn't think that I'd kill this thread with a night club as a challenge. 
NEW CHALLENGE: Your VW with before & after pics of cleaning up trash by the roadside.
Like this...

And again just a few 100 yards up the road.

Ok, I gave people plenty of time to respond…
Cleaning up a few boxes of shells and a glass sixer in Northern Nevada…
NEW CHALLENGE: Your VW at a polling place this Primary Election season.
I'll post a new challenge if nobody get this one by Super Tuesday. (…Riding my bike to my shift as a poll worker… No VW pictures over here!)
See you on the road!

Then a picture of your VW in your driveway might count, if the mailbox is visible

Yes, I just changed the challenge from “taking you to cast your vote” to “at a polling place.” That should be more inclusive, yes?

C'mon Asiab3, the idea is to complete the challenge with a new pic, not one that was already used, you should be able to do a new pic fairly quickly.
