  • Comedy moments in RW/live event history

    Hey guys

    Since I've had my fair share of comedy moments during my short carear in robots (the magnet to name but one), I was just interested to hear some of yours, either from back in the pits of RW or maybe something that happened in the arena, or indeed to you personally.

    To start off, a contribution of my own, what I call the polycarb incident:

    I was at the RL space centre event and as I was going down the side of the arena (with tea in hand) I fell over some lighting trussing or cable (can't remember what), and fell into the polycarb, which, because it wasn't a full show and no flipping out, wasn't bolted to the kickplates, so it just hinged open like a cat flap! Fell down over them and hit my head on a beer barrel prop! Still managed not to spill my tea though

    So come on fellas and ladies, give us a giggle

    I'm glad only a couple of people saw me walk into the large television screen at Barnsley last year. Still got a bruise from that, think it's permanent! lol.

              Ah yes, McDonalds.
              Dave Weston got locked inside a McDonalds after going to the toilet and then it closing or something...I wasn't there, I've only heard the story so the details might be wrong.

                  Poor Dave...I guess he didn't starve to death, though.

                    I gotta wonder why you would be in a mcdonalds toilet long enough for the place to shut up. I'm usually in and out of those places very quickly!

                      Well when you consider what you consume when in a McDonald's, is it any wonder that people take ages in the toilet?

                          After reading 08 the RL crew went to McD's. DW went the loo and a load of chavs pulled up and looked like they were gonna try and break into the vans so we all went out and the staff locked up behind us with dave still in the loo. Then there is the hotel incident Dave at Colchester was it? Tune in later for the full story.

                            One of the comedy moments I remember from series 7 - You only really got to meet the presenters, especially Craig Charles if you won your battles. I gave him quite a giggle - I only wanted to go to the toilet but walking from the pits I had to negotiate a set of double doors. I could see Craig coming the other way the other side of the door, as I walked up to the door I just pushed - I should have pulled - the door didn't move & I didn't stop til I ended up on the floor. Craig opened the door the right way & was giggling all the way past
