Camground screw up

[Camper1]

So Donna and I were camping earlier this week and it was kind of cold so we decided to stay in and watch a movie. We didn't have a lot of choices and we decided on a horror movie called The Wolfman Strikes. Turned the movie on and couldn't hear it very well so I kept turning in up until we could hear it but not well. Turned it up all the way and we were able to watch and hear it (barely). I figured there was something wrong with the movie audio or something. Around 9:15 PM, there was a banging on the trailer door. The camp ground security guy told me my outside speakers were on and he could hear the movie down at the main gate. Turns out I had only the outside speakers on full blast and the wolf howling at the moon along with the sounds of the wolf killing people was being broadcast thru-out the campground. I think I will be known as Wolf Man Jack from now on at Maple Park Campground.

That is undoubtedly a candidate for the "Boneheaded RV Moment" thread!

I am glad you weren't watching the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" or they would have thought you were clear cutting the campground.

Thank God no one here would watch adult flicks and pipe it outside!

There's a story on here somewhere where someone's "friend" did just that very thing! Watching some good quality adult entertainment with the outside speakers on the whole time!

I am so OCD about my speaker settings because of this. DW makes fun of me because I'll check it like 10 times during a movie!

There are three buttons that control which speakers are on in my Eagle. It is really easy to turn on the wrong ones. Since I never use the outside speakers I think I'll disconnect them...

oops!

I absolutely LOVE this story!! That's awesome! I think this is the best camp "oops" story I've ever read.

The moments we remember are what make up our lives.

Did the same thing this summer - except we were watching "Deadwood", which as you may know, features a LOT of "salty" language those prospectors used....
yikes how embarrassing! At least the CG management did not darken our door. But I am sure there were a lot of kids that impressed their parents with their new vocabulary the next day.....

Sound like a howling good time......you would have probably gotten away with it at Halloween...lol

How far into the movie had you gotten by 9:15? If a neighbor of mine had done that, I would have knocked shortly after the movie started just to make sure they knew their outside speakers were on. "Howdy, you want a beer? BTW, did you know your outside speakers are on and the whole CG can hear what you're watching?"

I can't believe it took CG Security until 9:15 to bring this to your attention... I would hope a neighbor would tell me if I were doing that.

Star Trek II Wrath of Kahn for us. Turned out the guy next to us was a devout "Trekkie".

Now I don't care what anybody says.....that there is funny!

Now that is funny

My wife and I were camping a few weeks ago up in the North GA mountains. I heard a little girl say, "Grandpa, can I have a hotdog?" I looked out the window and saw a nicely dressed old man snatching a hotdog off my grill and giving it to the little girl. He even opened the bag of buns and put the dog on a bun for her. I did not know these people and I was speechless. I hope she enjoyed my hotdog. I sure didn't know what to say which is usual for me! If I hadn't been so shocked I might have got mad.

The guard came by the next evening and wanted to know what the movie was going to be. They took it really well and said that this was a really common occurrence. The girls in the office had a good laugh about it when I checked out. They did tae my reservations for next year so I guess all is well.

[Camper1]

That is really out there. I cannot imagine the gall, but being a grandpa of a little girl, I kinda understand because I would give here anything she asked me for.

My Grandmother had dementia and this was in the back of my mind when I saw the old gentleman give the little girl a hotdog. I thought that maybe the old guy had dementia or something to so I gave him the benefit of the doubt. Besides, I didn't want to get the little girl upset... If she had asked me for a hotdog I would have given her one.
