While it may not make you feel much better...
It was 1996. I was driving a 10 year old VW Golf. Parked it outside my office building. Was working overnight. Came out the next morning.. Front fender, two doors and the rear fender on the right side.. each panel had the same, size 11 Timberland workboot imprint and an accompanying dent. 4 panels smashed on a 10yr old vw. WTF!
Sorry to hear about your mirror.
