* A variant on ''Series/{{Intimate}}'' where it's about getting into the car at all: The guys spontaneously decide to take a vacation, but Max points out they are five and only he has a car, which is a four-seater. The others instantly start playing games to determine the loser: calling shotgun, touching the ground, and "the floor is lava". Leo is able to keep up with the first two games, but as he's the only one not directly standing next to a couch (and even Max steps on the chair behind him just to be safe faster than Leo can react), he loses out in the end.

* In one WebVideo/ThomasSanders Vine, Thomas' friends complain when he calls shotgun, saying that he already had it on their earlier drive...only to turn around and learn that [[{{Pun}} he actually found a shotgun]].

* ''WebVideo/TheHire'': A VisualPun in "Beat the Devil". Music/JamesBrown and Creator/CliveOwen must win a drag race with the Devil (played by Creator/GaryOldman) who's seated next to Creator/DannyTrejo as his driver. Oldman starts the race by firing a shotgun out the sunroof of his CoolCar.
* ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'':
** The characters, typically the Red Team, routinely call dibs and shotgun on any new vehicle. Generally it's Grif winning against Simmons, unless Simmons winning can be used as a punchline. For example:
--->'''Simmons:''' Shotgun!\\
'''Grif:''' Shotgun! Fuck!\\
'''[[CampGay Donut]]:''' Shotgun's lap!\\
'''Simmons:''' Fuck!
** It's worth pointing out that the Reds generally have a system that works for them already in place for the Warthog/Puma/Chupathingy. Grif drives, Simmons takes the mounted turret gun, and Sarge rides shotgun (and he does, in fact, carry one). Then Sarge turns it into a codeword so Simmons and Grif can generally do something awesome with it. Of course, [[RagtagBunchOfMisfits the Reds being who they are]], it takes some work before they get it...
--->'''Sarge:''' ''[after several unsuccessful attempts]'' Shotgun, damnit!

* In ''Webcomic/{{Freefall}}'', [[http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff1200/fv01154.htm Sawtooth tries to call shotgun]], but Qwerty objects, since Sawtooth is too big to actually fit in the vehicle (he's actually considerably larger than said vehicle).
