Well, in Japan I walked past 3 guys, each dressed in full business suits and their brief cases on the curb.  The odd thing is that they were lying down...asleep!

I bet I have everyone beat.  In 1980, while crossing the great Bonneville Salt Flats on the interstate that runs between Salt Lake City and Wendover, NV, we saw woman kneeling beside a VW Beetle peeing in a coke can.  Everyone looked twice to make certain it was real.  It was.

Everytime I hear a story about Wendover, NV I hear something strange...

Every year I head out that way, but turn north on 93 at Wells, NV before getting to Wendover.

Seriously!!!  LMAO!!!!    :*))

My wife and I were going to dinner with another couple one night.  We were driving through the country and I had to piss, so I had my friend pull over to the side of the road.  I step off the road, start to piss and I hear the brush start to move.  I'm like what the hell?!  It gets louder....I'm still pissing.  The brush opens up and standing in front of me is a lama!   :o  I screamed like a girl and ran back to the car where my friends were all laughing at me.  Come to find out we had pulled over right next to a lama farm and they must have been out grazing.  Scared the sheet out of me!   ;D

I remember many years ago I was driving with some friends to a weekend of partying (fishing, golfing, etc). We past a few dairy farms and there was one field of cows. All of them were just standing around, like.....cows.....except one. He was standing up "getting his freak on" with another cow.  :o Hey everyone's gotta get some, but it amazed me that this cow was going at it in the middle of all his cow buddies. A field of cows, and this lone cow standing tall "gettin' busy". No sweet talk, no "hey baby, wanna get busy behind the barn?"  ;D

When I take road trips with the family, we often pass some farms with herds of cows. Now I fear seeing that same thing with my kids in the car.

HA... everyone else has got nothing on this:

One night when I was going through C school at Dam Neck in Virginia Beach, a few friends and I were out at a club.  It was cold and rainy and we all were kind of tipsy, but not falling down drunk.

So, we're driving the back roads back to the base about 2:30am and I see something ahead on the side of the road.  As we get closer, it is a dude, totally naked except for a ball cap and sneakers, hitchhiking!  Everyone in the car was stone cold silent until about a minute or two later when one of the guys piped up with... "Did anyone else noticed the naked dude on the side of the road back there?" at which point we all starting laughing and saying that we didn't want to say anything in case he really wasn't there!

Great stories guys.

I have not really seen anything too crazy on the side of the road that I can think of.

But!

What is the deal with shoes on the side of the road, one shoe, no match... but I see them all the time.

if you pay attention to it, it is almost always the right shoe. not sure why, but it always seems to be the right shoe.

That's hilarious Rob!

Paulie, if it's the right shoe, I'm guessing it's because passengers are sticking their right foot out the window and losing the shoe.

So, I wasn't the person that drove by this, because I was one of the people at the scene, but I'm sure someone would write about this if they saw it.

One night at home I got a frantic call from the girl I was dating at the time.  She had called to say that she had got in a wreck on this old country road that her dad lived on.  She was alright but both of her parents were busy and she wanted me to come get her.  She was calling from the ranch house that she crashed in front of.  I headed out there and upon arriving found her outside next to her mom's brand new Honda Civic.  The whole side was dented in and there was brown stuff all along side of the car.  I got out, gave her a hug and asked her what happened.  She said that she was driving down the road and came around the bend and there were two cows in the middle of the road.  She slammed on the breaks and the car turned sideways and kept sliding until she hit one of the cows.  Being from the country, I had heard of this before, but what came next about had me die from laughter:

I then asked, "what happened to the cow?"  She said, "it's dead over in the ditch."
Then I asked, "You only hit a cow?  What's the brown paint on the side of the car?"  She said, "that's not paint, it's cow sh*t"
I almost died laughing.  She did too!  Even the rancher who lost the cow couldn't stop laughing.  He said that in the 5 cows he's lost to someone hitting them with a car, he's never seen where the cow sprayed sh*t all along side of the car. 
Right as we were laughing one of the neighbors drove by and saw us standing next to the car with a dent and cow sh*t along side of it.

I don't think this story really belongs here but here it goes.

A few years ago i was going to Bridger Bowl in Bozeman, MT for the last day of ski season, and there was a naked dude in goggles, a banana hammock, and ski boots carrying his poles and skis walking towards the ski hill with his thumb sticking out.  the best part is that i got a ride from a car full of ski bunnies.

Some of these stories that have been shared on this site,on this thread and many others, could be gathered and bound into a book and would make for some great reading material!

my friends made me get rid of the banana hammock, they said that they never want to see it again
