Silliest Mistake on BART?
Don't have a really good one myself, but just curious:
What's the silliest mistake you've ever made related to BART?
(Mine: Was half asleep one morning and got on a SF-bound train in Fremont when I always take a Richmond one. Somehow didn't manage to notice/hear the TO's announcements at all and only noticed when we exited the tunnel, bound for West Oakland.)
Anyone have anything more amusing? :-D

The silliest thing I ever did
The silliest thing I ever did on BART was sign up for friggin' BARTRAGE. Place is full of bulls#!ters and fakes. There is entertainment value here though! Screw it! I'll stick around. I can B.S. with the best of them.

I tripped over my own feet on the escalator this morning... That was pretty silly

I was already posting my reply to her post when I read yours.
I decided she learned her lesson without me rubbing it in her face.
Never! I learned nothing!
Never! I learned nothing! The only thing that freaked me out is I was afraid I'd lost my work Blackberry in my rush to not look stupid. That would have been bad bad, SUPER bad. Turns out it fell out in the car and was on the seat when I got back. Phew!
it wasn't me, but the guy in
it wasn't me, but the guy in front of me leaving the parking structure monday evening. not really silly, but more downright stupid pull your freakin head out of your ass kinda stuff. this was at walnut creek around 5:30 PM, they guy was driving a dark green jaguar with one of those "dpoa" or "dopa" stickers in the back window. i could never figure out what those are for. the picture looks like something related to swimming?
anyway, i pull behind douche in the jaguar. he is stopped, blocking the exit to the parking structure. then he proceeds to put it in reverse, forcing me to back up. at that point, i realize that he is trying to back up because his right rear tire hit the curb. so he backs up about 5 feet, goes forward again, and hits the curb AGAIN. he puts it into reverse again, but then says "awe fuk it" and drives right over the curb. then, when turning on to ygnacio valley road, the car in front of him stops (we have a yield) and HE REARENDS THE GUY!!! two curbs and a bumper within 30 seconds. someone needs to re-take their drivers test.

Had my dress stuck in my panties while entering the bart station and a lady stopped me to let me know. I had walked all the way from where I was working on Embaracadero to the station which a long ways to walk without anyone tellng you that your ass is hanging out. I had to laugh about it. That day I wore a dress and luckily I had on stockings. Who knows what was seen, but it was clearly funny.

I caught my regular train
I caught my regular train home one afternoon, only to arrive at my usual parking spot and remember that I had driven to work that day. Not having the means to get home from the station ... it was back on BART, and back to work, just so I could drive home. It was a long commute that day.

Ok... there was a woman who was walking along the yellow strip while looking in her purse. She wasn't paying attention and walked right into the trackway!!! Two men helped her back up but she had broken her leg :( And even worse she was on the way to see her husband who she doesn't currently live wit (she's in the bay he's in mexico) because of his job. They were going to spend the weekend together in a hotel room and stuff..... ruined her weekend by not paying attention. STAY BEHIND THE YELLOW STRIP PEOPLE!!! lol

Fell asleep on bart (which by looking around every evening at my fellow passengers seems very easy). Woke up and found myself at Millbrae. The TO woke me up and asked me to off board. I missed San Bruno by two stops. I guess this isn't really silly?
Not nearly as bad as a friend
Not nearly as bad as a friend of a friend in London. There, many of the BART-like trains that go to the outer suburbs continue on to other parts of the country. This poor guy fell asleep on a train, and like you, was woken up at the end of the line by the TO. The only problem was that, in that case, it was 4 hours later and he was in Cardiff, Wales. Worse, it was then late enough that the next train back was in the morning, it was a work night, and he didn't have enough money/credit cards with him to buy the return ticket. So, he had to call both his boss (to say he'd be missing work) and his friends (to get them to wire him some money)--he hasn't lived it down since!

Am I the only one who can't
Am I the only one who can't sleep on BART? I'm too worried about the other bozos on the train with me. Besides, I have to pay attention so I have material to RAGE about :-) The best I ever do is the same thing I do in my chair at work sometimes, where I shut my eyes until I start dreaming, which seems to wake me up almost right away. Repeat that a few times in a row and it's surprisingly refreshing.

Cursed out 6ft guy. He was mad because I was offered a seat and it wasn't offered to him so he said a smart remark. I'm 5 ft 3", I told him (looking him dead in the eye), "I'm not scared of you!".. Then I should have, but didn't, held my arms open like Michael Jackson when he does his stance on top of the car or in that video where his wig flys in the wind. You know the one. Where he has on the white t-shirt looking real 80's. ha ha ha ha... I could have gotten bopped on the head, but it's not my fault he wasn't offered the seat.
