And for a second it felt like it was 1979.
They barely damaged the mailbox, but the post we had it on is snapped at the bottom (it was wood). It's almost like someone hit it with their car, rather than a baseball bat.... But there is a dent in the side of the box, which was definitely left by a blunt, bat-like object.
It's probably just karma. While I've never baseball bat'd any mailboxes... I have done many other things involving a car and friends that resulted in inconveniencing people. Things I'm sure a lot of people here have done, such as knocking over every (still-full) trash can on a block, and tipping over every porta-potty in town that we could find. (Pro Tip for people with frigid winters: Do it in the winter. The ground is usually too frozen for them to steak down the porta-potties, to prevent people from tipping them over)
Funny story about the porta-potties... We hit this one construction site like, 5 nights in a row, and from then on they had a cop stationed at that construction site every night, for the next 2 months.
Ah, misguided youth, how I miss you.

YOU... (used-to-be) MISCREANT!
My misguided youth involved more thievery and technology than physical destruction. Oh, the olden days of the Internet, how I miss thee.

Activities of misguided youth, dunno what purpose they serve, but at times they're so much fun. One summer, my friends and I went from floor to floor of our apartment building, knocked on a few doors and would hide behind the corner wall waiting for them to opened, once they were, we'd launch water-balloons in there as best we could. Would have gotten caught if we tried each floor, lol.

That sucks. Down here in Arizona, everybody on the same street uses the same mailbox, so it's kind of impossible for it to happen down here.
On the down side however, it takes me friggen' forever to get to my mailbox where up in Pennsylvania where I used to live, the mailbox was right outside of my house.
Oh well. Sorry to hear about that though.

I wish I had a misguided youth.
