Has anyone ever encountered a public messing while just out?

I always wonder this.

Now, I know that seeing someone get gunged while on line to get the paper at the newsstand or a drink at the pub is not an everyday occurrence but I am just curious out of ALL the members of this forum, has anyone encountered an out of the blue public messing?

About 10 years ago, I was at one of those casual dining establishments and I could hear that there was some ruckus going on in the kitchen area as our table was situated quite near. Apparently, it was the last day for the waitress and they sent her off with a chocolate cake in the face and added ketchup and a messy kitchen concoction on her. She came out to the end of the kitchen where some patrons could see and it was just such an offguard moment that will always stick in my head.

So how about you guys? There has got to be something!

Splash it on all over.

When I was boss of a cleaning department the staff gave a messy gong off to a young girl
However - as boss - I wasn't invited to see the event; although I did see the poor girl afterwards.
I had to send her home coz she was in such a mess.
Mostly eggs but other sticky stuff as well.
She took it well - and left on good terms - no hard feelings.

Also saw a fireman tied to a lamp-post covered in black sticky stuff - a wedding present from the other firemen I guess.

A similar tging happened to a young farmer before his wedding.
He was covered in black stuff and straw - sat in he back of a truck and taken on a pub crawl around the area. He had to sit in the truck while his pals went inside for a pint or 3; but they did bring him a pint after a while.
I took his picture and will see if I can dig it out for you.

ThatsunfairTV, the topic of your post is similar to a suggestion I made on this board last year about tricking members of the public into getting gunged. The other board members thought it was a bad idea and shunned it.

Stonecastle, the way I read it was that ThatsunfairTV was not talking about tricking others/members of the public into getting messed up, but more something planned by friends, colleagues, etc.

As both he and Matt said, like someone leaving a company, that kinda thing.

Mine was an open suggestion though. I was asking for ideas on how to get attractive female members of the public gunged.

They would have to know in advance, otherwise it would go down like a lead brick. Leon does this with proper messy and Mostwam. Though its all planned and people are on standy to keep memember of the public out of camera shot etc.

If I went to Manchester and started gunging random members of the female public, I'd get arrested.

Though you do seem at tadd obsessive about gunging women/picking women up....

We have seen lots of student nurses gunged on their last day on the ward, often with the throw away slops from tea time. We have also seen lots of muddy fun at Glastonbury.

I am not talking about just going up to women and throwing gunge at them. I am talking about tricking them into getting gunged which is entirely different. Take this senario:

Say you set up something like the guy who started this thread did a amateur TV show about people being gunged. Well you could go out and stop good looking women in the street with a couple of people who are in on it and say: "Excuse me but would you like to take part in a new TV game show? Do you have time right now?"

Then if they say yes you tell them a bit about it. Say well it is a quiz show where you will have to answer questions and try to get them right if you get them wrong you get punished by being hit with a cream pie. This is your big chance to get on TV though are you up for it?

Now the show will be filmed but it wont appear on TV the TV crew are all fake. That is the only trickery. The woman her self consents to being pied. But that is just one senario.

And when she finds out it's all a scam and she's not going to be in a Game show on TV and theres no chance of her winning a prize or even appearing on TV, I bet she would sue the arse off you.

Anyway just to throw a pie which cost about a £1 in a woman's face, Have you got about £10k to buy/rent all the TV cameras/sound equipment/lighting etc and then find 4/5 friends to be cameraman/soundman/producer/lightingman/director?.

If you did this and it worked without you being sued/imprisoned for assault or deception and not being a few thousand £'s out of pocket, I'll eat the messy leftovers of my next messy session :wink: :shock: :)

Nope, one plan that is sure NOT to work...

The idea of random messings in the street is quite sexy.

At uni they had a 'record breaking' food fight but I didn't know about it until it was over. :(

Is there no end to Stonecastle's ignorance?? Bless his cottons, can't be fun on your own.... (or with 700 hundred women)

Anyways back on topic....

As a one time young farmer, much messing about is par for the course for the youth movement as long there is beer and or the opportunity to do so...

I've seen a local newsagent's daughter tied to a lampost while a huge crowd gathered round, and they showered her with foam, soil, coloured water, that kind of stuff. (It was her last day working there.)

When I was little, I remember sitting in the Wimpy in the shopping centre, and some teenager came in, having been sprayed in shaving foam all over. All his mates came in too, sniggering at him.

As a child, we messed around with that custard pie foam stuff, which was incredibly crap. It either came out like milk, or something like shaving foam but would immediately hit the floor if you so much as moved a millimetre. And it smelt weird.

At school, the last day of term before the summer break would involve plenty of shaving foam, silly string, custard pie foam, snow spray (which is very evil - takes ages to clean out), fart gas, etc. All strictly outside the school gates of course, as aerosols weren't allowed in school. The joke shop must have made a mint.

I attended Glastonbury 1995, which was very nice, back when it wasn't so commercial and the headliners were actually good. After hearing months of "it'll be so muddy there" from workmates, it was pleasant to have the whole weekend really hot and completely mud-free... But the Reading festivals on the other hand, have been quite rainy and muddy.

As you may know, my local (Horseshoe Inn) staged Tiswas Night with plenty of pies and gungings, but ever since then, there's been the odd spontaneous outbreak of shaving foam pies if we dare to upset the landlady. Christmas day ended up with a cream and foam fight. All very silly.

IIRC, you actually wanted to deceive people by saying it's all for charity when it wasn't. Utterly despicable.

Being dishonest about your "television project" is one thing that's already quite sickening, but to fake charity requests, well, why not just go the whole hog, tell them you're suffering from cancer and AIDs, and ask for some money at the same time? You're no better than the creeps who do that kind of thing.

I'm not sure what world you live in anyway. With a gunging, there is the necessary clean-up. You've not even thought about the practicalities of this. You can't just hurl a load of gunk over someone out shopping, then tell them to go home, you've had your fun filming them. You seriously need a wake-up call.

Err..."tricking members of the public into getting gunged"? You'll need a very good lawyer and a very deep pocket when the writs for damages start rolling in..... :shock:
I think that the other board members might just have a point there. :roll:
