In college, going to church on a Sunday morning after having worked all night long. Fell asleep in the service serving communion, and snored through it. Only later did I realize why people were giving me dirty looks as I woke up when the service was ending.
Not my embarrassing story but...when I was in the National Guard, we were having a ceremony and there were hundreds if not thousands of service members from across the state.
This general was handing out awards and I whispered to this guy next to me “Brown! They just said your name! Get up there!” He ran up to the stage to shake hands with the general. Just as his hand was reaching for the confused general’s he realizes he’d been had.
He turned around with a stunned look at me and friends laughing. He then quickly slinked off the stage.
