A really memorable one was when the angel's wings fell off right as she was announcing the good news. She just stood there for a second, looked at the wings on the ground, and then continued without them, saying her lines with a big smile on her face. The whole audience burst into laughter. This shows how even when things go wrong in a nativity play, it can create really funny moments.
The misunderstandings can be really humorous. For example, a child might think that the baby Jesus is just a regular doll and start treating it like one during the play, like trying to feed it a real apple. This kind of innocent mistake makes for a very funny situation.
One funny nativity play story is when the little boy playing Joseph got his robe caught on a prop and dragged half the manger scene across the stage as he walked. Everyone in the audience was trying hard not to laugh out loud.
In 2020, my local community organized a drive - by birthday parade for a 90 - year - old neighbor. The cars were all decorated with balloons and signs. But one car's balloons got loose and started flying all over the place. It was chaos but also really funny. It made the old man laugh a great deal.
One memorable one is about a man who left his beloved old hat to his parrot in his will. The parrot would then perch on the hat and cackle as if it knew it was now the owner of this special hat.
Well, there's a story where a person called 911 because their ice cream cone melted too fast. They were so distraught over losing their treat that they thought it was a major crisis. Another is when someone called because their cat was stuck on the roof, but the cat came down right as the firefighters arrived. It was hilarious.
The one where a cat got stuck in a box and thought it was being sneaky while everyone could see it. It was quite funny.
The unexpected mistakes are often the most interesting. For example, when a child forgets their lines and makes up something completely off - topic but still manages to fit it into the story in a funny way.
A steward in a small town library had an interesting incident. He was shelving books when he accidentally knocked over a whole stack of large, heavy books. The noise was so loud that it startled everyone in the library. He then slipped on one of the fallen books and landed in a rather ungraceful heap. Everyone had a good laugh, and he later joked about how the books were trying to keep him from working too hard.
A memorable one is when a Winston player went into his Primal Rage form at the wrong time. He thought the enemy team was about to attack, but they were actually retreating. So he ended up chasing after their backs, growling and swinging his arms, looking really silly as they just ran away from him without any real fight.
One memorable story is about a cattle rancher who found a koala sitting on one of his cows. The koala seemed to be enjoying the ride as the cow grazed. Another is when a group of miners in the outback witnessed a family of wombats digging a hole right next to their mining site. The wombats were so determined and didn't seem to care about the miners at all. It was hilarious.
