He wasn't really naked but if you heard my Dad yelling wanting help finding leashes, you would have thought that.
What a way to get woken up.
A guy showed up to our house in shorts, barefoot, trying to get his dogs that escaped. He probably walked about 1/4 mile in fog and drizzle to get them.
Not complaining. It just feels like the weirdest way to get woken up.
Anyone else have any stories like this?

haha.
I've learned to never let the dogs out unless I'm dressed enough to chase after them. Once I was running around after one in my bathrobe with absolutely nothing on underneath and just wearing my house crocs. Thankfully it was in our backyard and our immediate neighbors and nobody saw me but that little shit (said lovingly) just didn't want to be caught. It was right after we got her and she wanted to explore the yards and the woods behind our subdivision. As a tiny shih tzu, she can't protect herself much (despite what she thinks) so I was scared to death of her getting lost.
ETA my weirdest way to get woken up was my dh throwing open the bedroom door at 4:30 am stating there was an Amber alert and he thought it was for his niece and his brother. It was. Crazy story and one of the most surreal days. FYI niece was fine and my BIL got mental health help.

Oh dear. My daughter met her realtor to get the keys to her new duplex. The guy next door was out mowing his law in his tighty whities! Not the way to start out.

I’m pretty sure my neighbors thought I was crazy early one morning jogging down the street calling “Coco Pebbles, Coco Pebbles where are you” when my two girls escaped.

We actually did have a naked guy nextdoor a few weeks ago painting a wall. I'm sure he thought no one could see him but boy was he wrong!

I am sure there are many but one of the worst was I was thinking/dreaming it was raining. Nope the water heater in an upstairs closet had burst and water was pouring down into the bottom floor of my condo/townhouse and also in through the kitchen cabinets.
I was so worried it had seeped into the unit next door so I had to call them to let them know (probably one of the worst ways they were woken up).
I also called my father (an hour away) who drove to my house at about 4 in the morning to help me. I am sure that was not a good wake up call for him either.
I hate having that water heater on the 2nd floor and if I ever bought again I would definitely think about places that had hot water heaters or washers on the 2nd floor.

Door bell rang in the middle of the night. DH got up to check on things. Came back quickly to say there was a naked guy on our front porch. DH grabbed a towel from the hallway closet and gave it to the guy after calling the police. The guy claimed someone was breaking into his home so he took off out his back door, leaving his wife and kids at home. He passed at least four other houses before he stopped at our house. We caught this visit on our security camera. We also didn't want the towel back.
We learned later that the guy had mental health issues and that there was no attempted break-in. According to his wife, he was startled by a loud noise coming from the railroad yard and just took off.

And that he didn't grab a "fancy" guest towel for your not so fancy guest.

Daughter and son-in-law were invited to a cocktail/deck party by one of their up hill neighbors. This is the only neighbor with a clear view of daughter's back yard. I was watching my 2.5 year old grandson and getting him ready for bed after his bath and suddenly he bolts out the door into the backyard. Apparently I was the hit of the party as they all watched ol' grandma chasing my naked grandson (giggling his fool head off, of course)!

My beloved cat Pickles liked to bring us “presents”, birds, chipmunks, bunnies, shrews, etc. One night he was acting a little bit strange and was sniffing behind our bedroom door along with our other cat. I had one of my DS’s look behind the door to see if anything was there. “Nope, no Mom, there’s nothing there.” Ok. Next morning, I’m sleeping, but woke up quickly when I hear DH and DS2 whispering “ok, if I go over here, you go over there and maybe we can catch it.”!!! Needless to say, I was wide awake. It ended up being a cute little chipmunk. Poor little guy must have been terrified the whole night with two cats watching him. I’m just thankful he didn’t wake us up by jumping on us in the middle of the night.

When I was 14/15, I was working as a bus girl at a Holiday Inn. A guy called for room service and when I got there, he opened the door and flashed me with an open robe. I set down the tray, pointed and laughed. I walked away and did not receive a tip. . I figured there was no way he was going to report me for laughing. He did not.

Me and my DD were on a city bus a few years ago. We were still in our neighborhood going towards CBD, when a butt-naked man ran past us on the sidewalk. He waved at the bus passengers, doing a casual little jog down the sidewalk. He seemed happy enough. I'm pretty sure I recognized his face as a local drug user who lives nearby. My DD was 9 at the time, and only caught his butt. Probably a good thing

Not to long ago, I was the half naked woman running down a usually busy road. It was 2am and my dogs started barking like mad. Woke me with a start let me tell ya. I go see what the ruckus is all about and they are standing at the back door barking their heads off. There's a security light out back and I couldn't see anything at all. I calm them down and go back to bed. 5 minutes later they are at it again. This time, I open the back door to get a better look and my little puppy bolted out the door. He was running wild and fast. I of course run out after him thinking I'd catch him in the back yard. Nope, I just have an oversized t-shirt and panties on with bare feet. The little bugger ran around the house and straight for the road. He's zig zagging like crazy back and forth across the road and I'm terrifed someone is going to come flying and hit him.
So here I am chasing this little dog all over the place and into people's yards. At one point we were both running down the middle of the road. I'm calling and yelling for Cash to please come to me. I expected cops to roll up at anytime because if someone looked out their window, they'd see what they thought was a half naked lady in the road calling for cash to come to her.
After 20 minutes, I did finally catch the little booger, only because something caught his scent and he stopped to dig. He's a little mini longhair dachshund. Thankfully no cars or cops came.

One of my friends was getting ready at home after her son and husband had left. She heard the front door open and figured her son had forgotten something. She came out of the bathroom and went downstairs and the front door was wide open and there were a pair of red tennis shoes on by the front door. Not her son's or husbands, but her son's friends hang out there a lot so she figured it was a friend. She didn't see anyone on that level of the house so went downstairs. There was a (not naked)stranger sitting at a desk in her basement. She was so cool she asked what he was doing and he said he need to get to a town an hour north of us. He just kept saying that. She very calmly asked him to go out side, walked him up and out the front door. Then she called the police. They picked him up a block away. He had mental health issues and they took him to get help. I still am in awe how calm she was - I would have screamed and run out of the house.
