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.
A memorable one was when a graduate's name was mispronounced so badly that it sounded like a completely different word. The graduate then came on stage and said in a very funny way, 'Well, I guess I'm a new person now!' which made everyone laugh.
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.
Incorporate humor or a touching moment. Highlight achievements and aspirations. End with an inspiring call to action that leaves a lasting impression.
Definitely the part where friends and family gather to celebrate. Their presence and support make the day special. Also, the graduation speech that might be inspiring and thought - provoking.
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.
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.
