Fun times? Drive around (at night) in a town that uses low pressure sodium vapor lamps for street lights....

Doug I assume u mean drive around with ur glasses on. I did that one time with some shade 5's on and HOLY SHIT it totally blocks out all stop lights, brake lights and anything else red for that matter. NOT what I recommend!!!
