LOL
Sounds painful Tony, but very, very funny!

no, one morning, I woke up in a hotel room in the ghetto, and the entire room smelled like rotting seafood.

I went out to a frat one night with some friends, and I woke up in an alley with one shoe on, soaked from the apparent rain, and with 37 missed calls from my friends trying to find me.

The night I graduated from high school after a party date with my girlfriend. 
 
I woke up in the back seat of my brother's car, covered from head to foot with paper napkins, my pants and my girlfriend missing, the entire left side of the car crushed in, and 200 miles on the odometer that I couldn't account for.  And yes, there were stimulants involved. Dead
 
Oh yeah, and the car was parked in the middle of a corn field.
 
Fortunately that was 26 years ago and I'm feeling much better now. Embarrassed

I was going to the movies 3 weeks after arriving home from the Gulf War and woke up in the Maryland Shock Trauma Center(car accident,hit head on by a underage drunk driver).

That was pretty unusual..and very disorienting.

I went to a new years eve bash at a friends place who lived just across the road from where I lived.  From about midnight onwards, things seem to disappear from memory, but in the morning, instead of crossing a street and landing in my own bed, I had walked half a kilometre to a park, and slept ontop of a childrens fort.  I was awoken at about 7am by a neighbour who hosed me from his garden. 
 
I didnt drink for 8 months after that.  (mind you, that was about 10 yrs ago).  I still get 'heaps' for that.
 
I really like this jacket, but the sleeves are much too long.

i miss alot of waking up in mysteriously strange places because i don't drink and when i do, i usually fall asleep before i get so intoxicated that i would do something that would cause me to wake up in the middle of a corn field with panties on my head and painted from head to foot with orange paint or something like that

On my birthday a few years back, I woke up in mid-air as I was being thrown in a relative's swimming pool.  Needless to say I felt a brief moment of panic...

No real funny moments for me..... I think the oddest place I have woken up was Birmingham......I did that often.......about 10 yrs ago I was working in London, catching the 5.30am train from Hemel Hempstead, by the time I was on the 7pm train home I often fell asleep............and often missed my stop and woke up at the end of the line in Birmingham.......
Other than that, growing up on the coast it was normal practice in my teens to wake up in a sand dune............
These days I like my duvet too much! ...............although a couple of new years eve's ago I ended up sleeping in a drum studio............which wasn't the best nights sleep ever!
