What funny thing did you do in public?

I was reminded earlier of something hilarious some friends and I did a couple of years ago.  :oD  Yes, there were witnesses.  *AHEM*

Tell me something you have done yourself or with friends that even to THIS day, when you think about it, you crack up!!

A friend and I flashed hot guys during Cruise Night back in the day when we were young, wild and hot... man, and we were the good girls too! yikes! it does make me smile though..

you first!

I was at a baseball game - stood up to take drink/food orders and it was gusty and my skirt flew up over the guy behind me's head.

I was so busy trying to remember what everyone wanted and that guy just sat there quiet as a mouse -- it was at least full minute before I realized what happened.

I am thankful, I think, that this happened back before I was overweight.

ok.. mine.. heh.. i was in college.. and working at six flags great america near chicago.. i was one of the few people working there and living in the dorms that was from the chicago area... so i always ended up taking groups of people (mostly people from out of country) and we decided to go to the beach.  it was probably 10 at night.. so not late but dark out.. we had to cross over lake shore drive through a tunnel.. what we didn't realize was that was the tunnel used by homeless people.. and we were freaked but we were already 1/2 way through it so we kept going.. locked arms.. and started singing at the top of our lungs "we're off to see the wizard" cuz we figured that if we acted crazier than them we'd be good.. would have been fine except for the fact that there was a group of cops at the other end of the tunnel wondering if we were drunk.. heh.. the funny thing was we wern't.. that story still makes me giggle.. :) 

It was winter time and I had worn huge boots to university and kept a change of shoes in my locker so I didn't have to clump around in the snow covered boots.  After changing into my shoes I was walking throught he chemistry building foyer.  It has marble covered floors and there were some pools of melted snow around the doors.  Since the doors are hard to open because of the negative pressure in the building I had to yank really hard.  I ended up yanking so hard I slid in a pool of water and gracefully ended up down on one knee while holding the door open.  The professor who was coming through the door from the other side said "Thanks, but next time you don't have to kneel".  I just about died!

Okay.  Here's *one* of my life's more silly public moments.  (Kinda have about 27 more.)

A bunch of us girls and my sister had planned a night out.  Went for Greek food (we're ALL "Greek Freeks"...love it!), and had more than our share of cocktails.  My sister was the DD, so we all piled into her Durango and were heading down to Whyte Avenue, a street lined with clubs and bars.  She had to stop at Safeway to pick up her prescription before it closed, and she parked right in front of the big windows.  My friends and I had cranked the music in the Durango, and were dancing/singing...all of a sudden, Sylvia (the crazy one) JUMPED out of the SUV, ran around and opened ALL the doors so you could hear the music, cranked it up, and yanked us outside. 

So there we were.  Dancing, doing the dirty dog (lol), singing at the top of our lungs in front of Safeway.  Just so happened my sister was at the till paying for her prescriptions, and there was a big kerfuffle....she turned to see what everyone was staring at, and just about DIED when she saw all five of us girls PLASTERED up against the huge windows acting like rockstars.  *Laffin*

Women were grabbing hold of their children and yanking them away from us as they came out of the store.  LOLOL.  I'll never forget that.  :oD

hmm silly public moments.. I got one.
In grade 11, the queen was coming to NB for the opening of an airport or something.. who knows?  Me and a few of my bandies were chosen to be in the marching band to welcome her to the province (dont worry she didnt see my foolish moment..) So, as I was the leadof my squadren's band, I was put in charge of making sure all my bandies knew how to bow and curtsy if the prince or queen decided to speak to us. (Not that she did)
So in the school caf a few days before, as me and a few of them were walking one asked for me to explain how, So I shrug and start to demonstrate (though for some reason I assumed I could do it and keep walking) "you just bring this foot back and bend...." and then I go and trip myself. like over my own leg. In front of like 450 people who didnt have a clue what I was trying to do. And to make things worse, I wouldve fallen down a flight of stairs if my friend hadnt caught me. They still make fun of me now.

Years ago (1961 to be exact) I was an art student.  They'd send us out with watercolors, a little covered pail to carry water, and a little folding stool, to various place around the city to draw and paint.  As we walked down Broad Street in Philadelphia, we'd stop at the lights, sit down on our little stools and hold out our pails, saying "Alms for the poor!  Pennies for a child of misfortune!"  People either laughed or gave us dirty looks, but nobody gave us money.  We laughed so hard!  I have never done anything else outrageous in the rest of my life.

When I was in high school during my "gothic days" I was walking down the street trying to look all cool in my 20 eye doc marten boots when all of a sudden my foot sank into deeeeep wet cement. It turns out I had somehow missed all the signs that said "caution;wet cement" and orange cones around the wet cement. All the construction guys were cracking up and I felt really stupid. They had to hose those doc martens off.

Also when I was 19 I had this boyfriend who was the very artsy emotional type. He was always sad and he made this box called his happy box full of things that he could go through to cheer him up when he is feeling down. He even decorated the outside and wrote "my happy box" on it. Well a few friends and I had a lot to drink one night and me and my friend Jen were sitting on the floor in my boyfriends bedroom laughing about something. All of a sudden she reaches over and grabs his happy box and throws up in it. She thought it was a garbage can. I crack up everytime I think about this. It was just so ironic!

Just before I left BC, in july this year, my girlfriend and I were having way toooo many beers.  At my hotel, we were on the balcony, as it was turing a nice 3 am, we decided to "moon" the cops...

hehehehehe.

omg canadian chick! Did you get in trouble? I remember I was once watching the show Cops but it was Canadian. The cops there seemed a lot more lenient. I think here you would get ticketed for sure.

Sophomore year of High School, oooh. There was this class, with those little desks and my hands would get really hot so I would rub them on the legs of my desk chair which was metal and cold (Okay, I know that part in itself is silly but it gets worse). Sometimes I would turn around and talk to this guy behind me and I would do that. (I guess I had ADD)

He was giving me a very strange look and I figured it was because I was doing that with my hands, well when I looked down I realized that I had somehow missed the metal leg of my chair and I was actually STROKING HIS LEG!!!!! I guess I was so busy being lost in his dark eyes that I didn't even realize it. Talk about embarrassing. He didn't believe me that it was an accident, he thought I was hitting on him.

I still laugh to myself.

How the heck did I stroke a hairy boy leg and not realize it???

By the way,

I appreciated all of your stories, very smooth! :)

I have plenty of embarrasing stories... I get a laugh from it and dont usually get upset.. What can I say... I'm a dag..

Back when I was skinnier (lucky) I was at the beach with my cousin swimming and the waves were pretty rough and throwing up lots of sand. So naturally it was a little uncomfy having sand in my one piece togs. So we took them off to shake out the sand rather than walking up to the bathrooms and a big wave came and knocked them out of our hands.

So there we were stark naked in the water and our togs washed up to shore. We yelled out to my brother to grab them for us but he decided to be evil and wouldn't do it. So we had to run up to the beach and get them ourselves... Soooo many people saw us and we copped a few whistles and sooo many jokes for the rest of the day.

Nope, didn't get in trouble, thank god.  In hine site that would of been really bad.  Missing our flights etc.

Oh well, I won't do that again...

And then there was the time.....

My brother-in-law was showing off at West Edmonton Mall.  He's 6'1", close to 300 pounds, he's a big boy.  We were in the food court, and they have all of these little bridges over water.  He was acting like a goof, jumping around a bit, and jumped too far......

Yep.  He landed IN the water ON his ass IN front of about 300 people.  The place ERUPTED with laughter....here was this ultra-professional guy walking around West Edmonton Mall with soaking wet jeans and squeeking whenever he took a step.

*GRIN*  Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.  LOLOL

I wouldn't call it embaricing, but my wife and I dance in the eisle of Toys r Us to the kiddy toys music.

When I was in high school there were no malls so our Saturday destination was downtown where all the shops were.  Traffic was a mess since everyone was trying to manuver through the pedestrians.  I used to get in the middle of the street and direct traffic.
