What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you?When I was little, my father and my cousin took me to a football game and my cousin got a bunch of autographs on a hat. On the way home, my cousin had the hat in the front seat and I was in the back. I had to pee and since there were no bathrooms for many miles, I attempted to pee in a Gatorade bottle. My aim must have not been great, and I missed the bottle, peed straight up in the air right on top of the hat. All of the signatures were smeared and the hat was basically ruined. We all laughed about this for the entire ride home and still laugh about it to this day at basically every family gathering.
