I was around 9 or 10 and we went to Florida on vacation. On the way home we stopped at Mammoth cave in Kentucky and went on a tour through the cave.
Well about half way through we came to the bottomless pit which was a big hole in the ground and was roped off.
Not far after the pit we had a rest area. When we got there dad was no where in sight.
Needless to say my mom started freaking out and started yelling dad fell in the pit. People were staring at us like WTF? I was embarrassed and I tried to calm her down and told her he probably got bored and left.
I finally had enough and said I am out of here to...she followed me all the way to the exit yelling at me and right before we reached the exit she said "if you don't stop I am telling your dad" and my response was " you can't tell him mom...remember he fell in the pit"...that shut her right up and when we got to the exit there he was. lol
Hope you enjoy that story
