I once went to get a coffee and a Yorkie at half time and got all the way back to my seat before I realised I hadn't sugared my drink! Anyone else had any crazy experiences at FA Cup games?
What hilarity ! I once bought a ticket for a different part of the ground to where I have my season ticket. I tried to present the ticket at the wrong gate - how we all laughed !</p> Beat that.</p>

"**** for luck!" exclaimed my mate, and we duly set down to the 'well to see us.... erm.... lose 2-0. my mate got knocked out with a glass eye against Liverpool, but that was a League Cup tie, so i don't s'pose that counts?
