OK, we've all had them... share your embarassing and funny public humiliation stories.... I'll start....
About 10+ years ago I was in TGI Fridays with a good friend of mine. We ordered and were chatting away waiting for our food. A short time passed and our food arrived. My friend started eating her chicken sandwich. I had ordered a burger. I put mustard on it and picked up the ketchup bottle to put some on the burger. It was a glass bottle..not the squeeze kind. I picked it up and shook it two times, very quickly, to move the ketchup up to the top, so I didn't have to sit there forever waiting. Welllll..... the lid was loose. The lid flew off and the next thing I knew I had ketchup everywhere....everywhere - in my hair, all over my t-shirt (white), in my ears, all over the table, we were seated next to a planter...there was ketchup all over the plants. There was a woman behind me...I got her too. I was STUNNED! :shocked: My friend had been talking and had asked me a question. We in my shock, I didn't answer and she looks up and says "are you going to answer me?" and she sees me covered in ketchup. She started laughing and said "OMG, you look like you were stabbed!"
The icing on the cake was....I swear there was no sound, and in slow motion, I hear the cap land on the other side of the restaurant. The waitress walked up right then and was as stunned as I was. She laughed and brought me soda water and napkins to clean up. I turned around and apologized to the lady behind me and when she saw me she laughed too! She only got a little blob on her...I just had it everywhere! It is forever known as "the ketchup incident!" To this day I check the cap on non squeezable ketchup.... just a little paranoid.....
OK...start sharing!!
