They were fired."
As another prom season comes and goes, weaskedtheBuzzFeed Communityto share their wildest stories from the dance.
Here’s what they had to say:
1.
The next day everyone asked how much I’d been drinking.
Sadly, I was stone sober."
“I once got into a car accident the day of prom.
I still went to prom.
My date made me go because he rented a tux and didn’t want to waste his money.”

“I was on a double date with my bestie Lori and her date who drove.
I had never had scallops before.
We’re at the prom an hour later and I feel a little queasy.
It didn’t pass.
We got our pics taken.
You have never seen such a pasty, shiny, sweaty face in a prom pic!”
He said he couldn’t because he was going on a family vacation.
I said it was fine and that was that.
Who shows up with another girl from my grade?"
She was furious but we still went to prom in the same limo.
I was so embarrassed.
It was super hurtful and I still remember that sinking feeling, even now in my 30s."

“Our school principal found three used condoms on the floor during clean up after prom my freshman year.
At least they were using protection?”
“This is more embarrassing than wild.
At my senior prom, I won prom queen while my high school boyfriend did not win king.
I think this was the only time I ever interacted with him.
“The prom king and I split ways and went to our significant others.
Later on that night, I went to the bathroom and ran into three drunk girls.
One of them was throwing up.
They congratulated me, but the girl throwing up told me how embarrassing the whole scene was.”

“I brought straws to prom because I didn’t want drinks to mess up my lipstick.
When the teachers checked purses at the door, they grilled me over the paper straws I brought.
I told them the reason and they eventually dropped it.
A few hours later, I realized why they were being so harsh on me.
They thought I was going to use the straws to snort drugs at prom.
They were fired.”
He was a creep.

She had an awesome high school experience up until then.
The day of, she got ready: hair, nails, tan, and a gorgeous dress.
She was stunning.”
“WORST NIGHT: I was so excited.
I got a beautiful floor-length gown, his sister did my hair and makeup, and he looked handsome.
It was great up until we walked in.
He made eye contact with his ex.
They danced all night and he left with her.
He didn’t say a word to me all night once we got there.”
“I had to ask one of his friends for a ride back into town.
It was a small town so events were always an hour away.
It was the most awkward ride home ever.
I never spoke to the douche canoe again.
He was my first boyfriend and we pretended like neither existed after that night.
Ah, high school.”

“He ended our situationship after prom because he wasn’t over his ex-girlfriend.
“I hadn’t intended on going to my prom.
I was pretty much a loner/outsider with no girlfriend.
Some girls approached me about taking a girl who had just broken up with her boyfriend.
“We got to prom, descended the staircase, and she saw her old boyfriend.
She ran down the stairs into his arms with EVERYONE watching and laughing.
I quietly slipped out and drove around in that Cutlass for the rest of the night.”

“My daughter’s prom horror story.
She had already been to her prom with her boyfriend.
They had fun and everything was great.
Her boyfriend’s prom is two weeks later.
They are getting ready to leave for dinner reservations when they get on his souped-up four-wheeler.
He’s going too fast and throws her off the golf cart.”
“It was my junior prom.
My mom insisted on sewing my prom dress.
It had a high collar, long sleeves, many buttoned cuffs, and was floor length.
I was so hot and miserable.
The only skin to get air was my head and hands.
I realized years later what she was up to!”

“I had the wildest senior prom for a class of 42 people.
Finally, a guy threw an afterparty at his girlfriend’s house.
The girlfriend was the 26-year-old former math teacher who resigned the previous December.
We all are looking forward to discussing everything at our 10-year reunion.”
“The prom king was in our prom group.
The prom itself was fine.
There was a limo, pictures, dinner, and dancing.
We decided to hang out after at our friend’s dad’s land in the middle of nowhere.
You get at least 50 to 60 feet in the air.
“It was like ahorror film.
The flashlights we had died right as they took off.
One came on just in time to see them collide, head to front teeth.
Long story short: my prom date knocked out the prom king’s front tooth the night of prom.
He now has a fake front tooth.
Let’s just say, his mother was not thrilled with us.”
He was like, ‘What if we get caught?’
and I said, ‘What are they gonna do, arrest us?’
I was a senior so I had a stash of prom dresses ready.
