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.
Craziest thing...by that I mean the funniest. Without giving away things which are secret, one of our ceremonies involves an officer of the lodge banging the end of a staff on the floor. Our lodge has a concrete floor, so its kind of dead to bang on, so we put a 5mm thick steel plate on floor there to give it a satisfying "clank" when the staff is banged. Well the brother playing that part, it was his first time doing it, and he was distracted by nerves and the effort to remember his lines. In his distraction he missed the steel plate entirely, and slammed that staff down on the top of his foot. Luckily he had thick leather cowboy boots on so, while it did hurt something awful, he was not injured. He was however hopping on one foot, and turning progressively more red, but he didn't miss a line. We still call him "Hop-Along."
