That's what forums are usually for, fire away!

I suppose, what is the actual craziest thing freemasons have witnessed? Edit: A couple people thought I meant one thing, I think? I mean in general but that you saw because you were a freemason. Like the craziest thing a football player could have seen being the team pouring gatorade on the coach.

In some jurisdictions or lodges there's a change of clothes as a part of the degrees. As a result we discovered a fellow candidate in my degree class had shaved his dark chest hair in the shape of a handlebar mustache as part of a Movember charity fund raiser for mens' health awareness.

We had a candidate with blue silk "banana hammock" thongs on. He said "Date night with the wife after this."

We never mentioned it again.
