Re: Most embarrassing thing to happen to you at a FIRST event?

My first (and last) experience as official event Master of Ceremonies - I was struggling with team flags during team intros. I didn't realize I could just drop them off to a volunteer between the red and blue sides, so during some matches I was manhandling six giant flags at once.
One of the teams had a legit flagpole, complete with a bronze eagle on top. I didn't realize it had fallen off the pole during my manic flagwaving.

The crowd did.

They let me know, in no uncertain terms. But their message didn't sink through my skull before "3 2 1 RUSH!"
