A Shoupite tale:
"A few years ago, at a previous job, I was sitting in my car listening to the “Tangled” soundtrack and singing my heart out. When I got out of my car to start my shift, to my horror, the guy in the car next to me was on the phone with his friend and said “nice” while laughing. It didn’t hit me at first as to why he said that until I realized my windows were down my entire jam session. Oh well."

Heather
A Shoupite tale:
"I was in dance in high school, and I had a hair piece that was a long braid that I wore for a performance. I decided to attach the bottom of the braid to my shirt so that the braid wouldn’t swing around while I was dancing. Instead, the hair piece falls out of my head and starts swinging around from my shirt. But, the show must go on so I just held the hair piece in my hand all the way until the end of the number. Every dancer or performer experiences a wardrobe malfunction or two during a performance at some point in their “career” so it definitely could have been worse."
