Most embarassing gaming moment?

[Hannibal King]

I supposed this was embaressing, but it did'nt bother me in the slightest.
, some highschool friends and I were playing and the pizza finally showed up. I was in full swing, talking in a old womans brittish acent and cakcling like mad to puctuate sentences. My back was to the door and I missed the fact that most of the guys had fallen silent. Apparently the girl delivering the Pizza was very hot and very puzzled by he game.

Same situation with the pizza guy but I was the DM who went to the door to get the Pizza's. Meanwhile my players decided to discuss their ingame plans rather loudly which include a comment to the effect of "I think we should kill him and take his stuff!".
The pizza guy gave me a look and I just nonchantly shrugged my shoulders. When he left I burst out laughing and couldn't get a word out, tears where streaming down my face, and the guys couldn't work out what was so funny.
Later we all jumped when we heard a knock at the door, we thought it was the cops! I wish someone would do a sitcom about a gaming group, with some of this material the series would be on TV for years to come, and I am sure being a situation comedy even non-gamers would find it funny.

Not so embarrassing as much as funny, but back when LARP was really big and pre 9/11 I was running a LARP and somehow a "mundane" overheard some of my players talking about a sniper on the roof of a building. Not 20 minutes later I am getting grilled by like 5 cops. I was so scared trying to explain them the what LARPing was and why there wasn't really a sniper. Thank god this happened before 9/11 or my URL might be from a prison!

My brother and my good friend were visiting me at my work before our gaming weekend. Walking down the hall to the cafeteria my brother gets excited talking about the in-game assault we have planned on his powerful evil noble house and says overly loudly "I keep expecting you to charge around and chop off the heads of everyone you see!" as the CEO of my company walks around the corner and walks past us in the hall.

Most embarrassing?

I farted.

I got one like that! It wasn't me but was a great guy that was a player. Everybody loved the guy, funny, nice, all that stuff, and a fun player, his characters always had tons of flavor.

Well, he had a bit of a digestive problem and for whatever reason his farts smelled like death. Like ancient, evil, flesh-rotting death. It would make you gag if you got a good strong sniff of it, no joke. I've never been around anything like it before or since. But we're 5 guys out of college, we're more mature than that, whatever, unphased by farts.

So we are gaming at one of the players' house, and it's a nice house. Like a NICE house with white carpet and house-controlling remotes and cleaning ladies and all that. So at one point, guy farts, and we are used to it, and laugh and whatever. Guy who owns the house's wife comes in to see what we are all laughing about, then tells him that the bathroom is up the step and to the right <points>. We all laugh as he jumps up a runs to the bathroom.

So he's gone for a long time, like 20 minutes plus and we all notice and start to speculate. Guy eventually comes back and asks to speak to the owner of the house privately. Turns out he clogged the toilet and needed a plunger but was so embarassed that it took him a long time to work up the courage to tell the owner. So the owner and guy go downstairs to get a plunger from the other bathroom and the wife wanders into the bathroom and..as soon as she enters the room...pukes from the stench, all over the place, because she wasn't putting her head anywhere near that toilet!

Poor guy was so embarassed I don't think he could ever look that woman in the eyes again.

Got another one for ya'll.

I'm DMing a friend in his little cottage behind his house late at night. He's screaming and flailing about when suddenly, a knock on the door. We open the door and see... a police officer. He says that neighbors called the cops because they thought a woman was being beaten.

Well, this happened to one of my players. In the midst of a FR adventure, his half giant cleric had a little real world accident. His character sheet fell into a candle on the game table being used as a prop (I don't use prop candles anymore) and erupted into flame. Keeping in mind that he was slightly drunk at the time, his reaction was one of dumbfounded ,"Huh?" then "Aaaggh!"

We later said the character had died of spontaneous combustion from the waist up and he rolled a new character.

Just remembered another one ...

took place at Sizzlers ...

We were there for someone's birthday and discussing the Shadowrun Game we had just played, and I was going into intricate details how we dismembered 5 members of a gang sent to kill us and

"we sold their body parts for $40,000"

at this point I realised everyone had gone silent and the waitress behind me was looking at me with slight fear and inherent "warning ... call the police".

Well not my most embarassing moment but one of my players'.

I was DMingThe party had been on a quest and it had gotten somewhat tedious so we all agreed to abandon it. But for this quest some of the players were commissioned to do things the rest of the party didnt know about. Including one elf Rogue/Sorcerer who was given some hollow glass balls, he was to break one every week at a specified time. Well shortly after abandoning their quest the party had stopped after crossing a ford. The sorcerer/rogue says to me "I put my balls in the water." To this one of the female gamers says "You what!?". Realizing that the other players have no idea what he is talking about he attempts to cover himself by saying "Well, they're in a sack..." At which point one of the other gamers squats to do a reenactment of the scene complete with vocalizations and facial gestures.

It was quite some time before we got started again.

For me, it was when I was DMing, and told the group that the room they'd just entered had a burning brassiere, instead of a burning brazier. I laughed with them, but man oh man was I red.

Early on in my relationship with my fiance, I had planned on an all weekend gaming session with other friends, unbeknownst to her. The night of, upon returning home from work, I found her in my dorm room, on my bed, gothed out in a hot leather skirt and made up to seduce. Oblivious to her feminine wiles, I said "Hey, wanna go play D&D with us?"

She came, and amazingly, the entire game group missed the "I'd rather be scoring" signals she was putting off. In the end, she didn't play, but went home instead.
