In a graduation speech at a small school, the speaker shared a story about a dog that wandered onto the campus during a graduation rehearsal. The dog ran around the stage, stole someone's hat, and then lay down right in the middle of the stage as if it belonged there. The speech then went on to say that just like that dog, unexpected things can happen in life but we should embrace them with a smile, just like the students did with the dog that day.
One of the most memorable is when a graduate's cap flew off during the speech due to a strong wind. The speaker then joked that the cap was so eager to be free and start its own adventure. Another is a story about a professor who accidentally wore mismatched shoes to a graduation ceremony and it was mentioned in the speech. It was really hilarious.

Then there's the story of a graduate who brought his pet dog to the ceremony. The dog ran around on the grass during the event, chasing butterflies and causing quite a stir.
