What was you worst / most embarrassing sports moment

Think this was asked a few years ago, but here goes.

Mine would be 5th grade baseball, came in as pitcher with a comfortable 5 run lead late in the game. Got shelled so hard walked off mound with hat over face, and crying.

Probably gave up 9 runs in under 5 minutes. With 0 outs, fucking awful performance.

Not that you care but my friends and I still make fun of the kids that cried when getting shelled in Little League. We’re in our late 30s

During a camp once(thankfully just a camp) I got a turnover playing lacrosse and juked out the goalie and scored a zinger. Went to celebrate and came to the realization as my teammates began yelling at me how I was dumb enough to score on my own goal.

As a 9 year old, thought a fork ball was a pitch where the ball is supposed to be positioned between the fingers of the "hook em horns" gesture. Threw the ball clear over the backstop.

I was lobbing a Molotov cocktail once & I soapdish-fumbled it right behind me. Managed to get away from with nothing more than some singed ass hairs. Never been able to live that one down.

I shit myself during a tee ball game because I was already serious about baseball and knew it was bad form to interrupt a game. I'm pretty sure I've told the story here at least once before so I'm not doing it again. It's a funny memory though and I'm glad I held onto it.

I thought of another one. In 8th grade football I had lost my starting QB position to a new kid in school who was good at running the option and that was the new thing. So it took me a while to learn some other positions and start getting on the field on offense. We had a position called the Z, basically a slot receiver, that got some run plays and was the first target in every pass play in the offense even though we had wideouts and a TE. Anyways, I was getting moved into that position. As a side note, I played safety on defense...single high and was good at it. I was way better on defense and way more into it.

Anyways, I finally got on the field as the Z, but had my head up my ass so bad that I lined up at safety. The QB didn't notice and started the count. I looked around right then and panicked. I tried to go into some kind of motion from 15 yards deep to the right slot and they snapped the ball. Fucking coach stood over there screaming at me about it and I never did get a chance to explain what happened. Oh well. Fuck that coach lol.

Freshman year basketball. As backup point guard, was running opponent offense for three straight practices. On game day, I went into the game in the second quarter and proceeded to run the opponent’s offense.

Coach calls timeout. Walks up to me and quietly says, “Now, when we go back out there, let’s run our fucking offense, OK?”

Whole team is laughing. But it was pretty cool that he told me I was a dumbfuck in a way that none of the parents or anyone watching (all 16 of them) could hear.

Same year, a “buddy” pulls my shorts (the kind with the built-in jockstrap) down to my ankles in gym class during warmups in front of about a dozen 14-year-old girls.

Embarrassing yeah, but I never had a problem getting dates after that.

Freshman year was special.

High school football. Sophomore year. Me and the rest of the linemen took a bunch of cross tops (speed) right before the game. Big opponent. Right before halftime I shit my pants. Dear old moms chicken and dumplings from the day before. A lumpy dumpy with a gravy trailer. Felt the drip into my shoes.

Stench was a most untoward experience. Whole files stunk like a Mumbai slum. 2 minutes to half coach sends in a replacement and I send him back to the sideline so I don’t have to go to the sideline in my WHITE PANTS and have the crowd examine the shit stain.

Missed the halftime speech as a couple back ups Jose me down on the shower for 10 minutes. Finished the game in a soaked, very stinky all white uniform.

I thought Ty would be a good coach.

My entire youth sports (below high school) was a long running embarrassment yet with nothing remarkable. My fat ugly nipples in middle school track tank tops might have been one of the worst. Wrestling in 2nd & 3rd grade was moving from one mat of degradation to another.

Senior year of football in a first round playoff game, against another small town school that took football very seriously and traveled well. I wore old school knee braces that had these hanger straps that ran up the inside of the pants and hooked on the belt. Damn things were constantly coming undone. In this case, the braces became terribly tangled up and I could barely move because they slid down so far. I came off field following an offensive series, went to far side of bench, and without thinking much dropped trow to fix the situation as quick as I could. I gradually become aware of a commotion behind me, and turn around to see that I'm directly in front of the visitors section and am being heckled by the cheerleaders, students, and parents. Good tims.

By far the worst sports moment I experienced was when I learned UW was going to hire a just fired fraud to be their football coach. It was at that moment I realized winning football was not important to those running the university.

Junior or senior year of high school football and I’m on the scout team at safety. My buddy Ronnie is the H Back and runs a crack back block on me and broke my face mask.

I lost to Cal once.

Doesn’t everybody lose to Cal though? Hardly embarrassing

Mine was thinking the 2021 Huskies would be good

Senior year we were getting our asses kicked in our rivalry game at the other team's place. We had destroyed them 3 years prior and I had talked a lot of shit to their receivers and knew I was going to have to take it this year. But then we came all the way back and beat them in overtime and I laughed.
