At a school's Homecoming Sunday event, there was a pie - eating contest. One student was so eager to win that he shoved the whole pie into his mouth at once. But then his cheeks puffed out like a chipmunk's and he couldn't swallow. His friends were laughing so hard that they nearly fell off their seats.
Well, there was this time at a small town's Homecoming Sunday. They had a parade and one of the floats had a mechanical cow that was supposed to moo. But instead, it started making a really strange screeching noise. The people on the float were trying to fix it while the parade continued, and it was hilarious.
Here's another one. A little boy was so excited for Easter Sunday that he got up really early to find his Easter basket. He searched everywhere in the house. Finally, he found it on top of the fridge. But when he tried to reach for it, he accidentally knocked over a big vase. Thankfully it didn't break, and his family had a good laugh at his clumsy but eager attempt.
One Sunday, I went to the park. There was a man trying to teach his dog to skateboard. The dog just kept running around in circles instead of getting on the skateboard. Every time the man put the dog on it, the dog would jump off immediately. It was really hilarious.
A family planned a big Easter dinner. They made a beautiful lamb roast. But when they brought it to the table, they realized that their cat had managed to put its paw print right in the middle of the gravy. It was a mess but also really funny. They just had to laugh it off and make a new batch of gravy.
One funny story was when a group of alumni decided to recreate their old college band performance. They were all out of practice and ended up playing the wrong notes most of the time, but the crowd loved their enthusiasm and it became a hilarious and memorable moment.
One funny Palm Sunday story could be about a donkey that was supposed to be part of the re - enactment of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. The donkey was so stubborn that it refused to move at first. The people trying to lead it were pulling and pushing, and it just stood there looking at them with a confused expression. Finally, someone offered it an apple and it started walking, causing everyone to laugh.
I remember at a college homecoming, there was a 'find the hidden treasure' event on campus. The 'treasure' was a small statue of the school's founder. Well, a group of students got so excited and competitive that they accidentally dug up a water pipe instead. Water started spraying everywhere and they were all slipping and sliding around. And during the homecoming carnival, there was a dunk tank. The dean of students agreed to be in it. But every time someone threw the ball, the mechanism wouldn't work properly, so he just sat there looking smug while the crowd booed and laughed.
One funny Howard homecoming story could be when the marching band's instruments all got mixed up right before the parade. The tuba player ended up with a piccolo and the drummer had a triangle. It was chaos but everyone had a great laugh in the end.
