Thank you all so much for contributing...it's going to be really hard to pick one...but as promised, my own story.
So around March of my senior year of high school, I had this crush on this Junior girl. She was real pretty, definately out of my league, but I decided I was going to ask her out anyway. I kept telling myself that I was going to do it until finally 2 weeks later I actually did, and she said yes. I was elated and she seemed pretty excited about it herself. I asked her on a Wednesday and after talking that night we made plans to go out Friday. Thursday comes and goes without a hitch, then Friday comes. It's almost the end of the school day, and i start to feel horrible. I get home, find out I have the flu (result from skipping class+ standing out in the cold for an hour) pass out and when I wake up it's about 11 o' clock, resulting in her thinking I blew her off. I tried to explain, she didn't buy it, and we never spoke again.
Moral of my story: karma's a *****.

I've been in 9 car accidents. I have had my license for not quite 8 years. Each one of them is the fault of the other driver. Three were people running stop signs, one person ran a stop light, one was a drunk driver, one was a freak snowstorm and someone crossed the lanes of traffic, one was being rear-ended, one was a deer, and my personal favorite is a truck in front of me was transporting a La-Z-Boy recliner in the back of their truck and it flew out of the bed and into the road and there was construction on the road, so the cement barriers of doom were up and someone was in the other lane and behind me, so BAM, crash by recliner. So that was a fun accident. Seriously, who has a car accident with a La-Z-Boy???? Oh, and all of these accidents were within one month of buying a new car. Since I've been married, my luck has changed a little, the cars my hubby buys me are still wrecked within a month, but he has to be driving and I have to be a passenger (the deer and the drunk driver). WTF?!?!

I have 2 instances.
One was sparked because My ex-girlfriend's friend, was my best friend. And we went to Laser Tag without her, because she acted uninterested. The thing is, she was unaware of our trip. So during the trip to laser tag, I backed into a gate, and broke my tail light. ($119). I twisted my ankle during the actual game. The next few following weeks, bad things would happen, such as my car would randomly cut off, I would get hurt left and right. and Lose a lot of money. then more bad luck would literally randomly happen. I was driving somewhere and it was raining, My windshield wiper snapped in half, so i couldn't see. When i went to the store to buy a new one, it stopped raining. So i didn't buy it, because they were cheap anyway. I got back in the car, and it started raining again. I went back to the store, bought the cheap windshield wiper, and the rain stopped once again. SOON as i start putting the windshield wiper on it started hailing. it just wasnt a good day.
Also, 2 days after I bought my first car off of a used car lot, it Literally BLEW UP! I was driving to my friends house, and the car cut off on me. then sparks of flames came from the engine, and it started smoking really bad. So i grabbed my stuff and ran away from the car, called 911 and like 4 Firetrucks came, with 12 firemen. And it took forever to put the fire out because it was in an underground parking garage. By the time the car was extinguished, it had no hood, no windows, and the whole inside was nothing but the metal inside of the seats.
Luckily I got out in time :-)

I read that you were more likely to be taken by a shark or hit by lightning before you would win the lottery.
I was swimming at Bondi Beach and the mobile rang and my wife got it.
She pulled something out of my wallet and ran to the waters edge and jumped fully clothed into the water.
"you won!"
"what?"
"you won lotto!!!"
She handed me the ticket and walked back out of the water while I stood there with the ticket in my hand and my mouth hanging wide open like a country tourist in the big city for the first time.
Then almost simultaneously two things happened:
Lightning struck me, turning my winning ticket to ash,
which blew into the ocean
just as the shark spotted me.

Well it didn't happen to me i read it on the internet...but read...This girl was going out with this guy and they were so in love or at least she thought. Prom was coming up she had already found her prom dress and her boyfriend argued to be her date. So it was the night of prom her boyfriend came over with the limo, they soon arrived at prom they were dancing havin' fun. But then her boyfriend wasn't feelin' to go so he said "I'm just gonna lay down in the limo for a while". She asked him if he wanted her to come with but he said no have fun. So she dance and tryin' to have fun but she's worried about her boyfriend. It's been 20-30mins so far that's hes been gone...so she goes and sees if he is o.k. She sees the the limo opens the door and her boyfriend is makin' out with some girl. She broke up with him....the end!! This story is not really about bad luck but it's sad.

I dropped off my kid’s at my sister’s house so I could run some errands. I had to go to the county extension office to give them a form, nobody was there…I needed to open a checking account, my driver’s license had my old address on it, so I went to the court house to have a new one made and I found out there was a lean on my license and I had to pay a $300. fine
So I had the license made and went to open the checking account and for some reason my name is in check care systems and I can’t get a checking account,
So anyway, that was the day I found out the evils of Identity Theft…..
I had to go to the sheriff’s office and fill out a report.
Then I had to get groceries…..with $20, because I had to cancel everything and that was all the cash I had left…..by the way, the problem with the driver’s license was also not me, it was whoever had stolen my identity.
So on my way to pick up the kid’s my sister calls my cell phone and tells me to meet her at the emergency room because my son fell off her front deck and cut his head bad and had to get stitches…..the meat and milk I managed to buy with the 20 bucks went bad in the heat and we had to eat meals with my devil of a mother in law for the rest of the week because we didn’t have any money!!!!
If anybody’s day was worse than mine I will trade them my social security number for a load of groceries!!! (lol)

I worked in a factory, I burned my hands on the job. I went to the doctor. My hands were bandaged. I returned to work. When I was getting out of the car I had bumped the gears, I did not know it went into neutral. I slammed the door, which caught my bandage. The motion of the door slamming gave enough momentum to my car to send it moving. My bandage still caught in the door began to unravel, the car continued to roll, it went down a hill and hit a tree. I got the nickname angel of doom at work :)

Way back in 1966, I was thrown out of college and received the 1a Draft status. In my panic before thinking I went and enlisted into the Navy Air Reserve. Then I got the draft physical notice and promptly failed due to having flat feet. Took the paperwork back to the Navy people and was told--"You volunteered!"

This is easy. My first true love ever, my high school sweetheart and I were together for five years. She was a virgin, I was not, but it didn't matter one bit. She was waiting till marraige, I was gonna marry her. Done deal. Then she cheated on me, then married him. Think thats a sad story. Well my next long term relationship that was destined for the alter... cheated on me. Once again, they are now unhappily maried and she still calls me. That has gotta be worth ten points....

Lets see, My Mom died in February of this year, my sister died three days later, I'm still paying funeral expenses, forced to move in with my g/f cause I can't afford a place of my own anymore due to medical expenses I'm paying off for my ex wife, and deceased Mother.
Not sure it's bad luck, but it's hasn't been a good year.
