We've all had them, your suit rips during a start, you accidentally sneeze on Michael Phelps, you burp or fart on the starting blocks, etc. (none of those happened to me...knock on wood).
What's your most embarassing swimming moment? (includes, meets, practice, anything swimming related)
My first meet in college,swimming the 200 Br. There was a false start but they fired the recall pistol while I was underwater and I didn't hear it. I came up and got the false start rope hitting me right in the neck. I was so nervous I didn't realize what it was and kept swimming thinking "coach is never going to believe this,someone left a rope in the pool and now I'm going to have to swim with a rope around my neck." After 4-5 strokes not getting anywhere I figured out what happened. The upper-classmen didn't let me forget my ignorance for awhile.
