Today, I was working as a clown (Pennywise) in a haunted maze. A bunch of drunk guys came in and started breaking props. I decided to stay still and follow through with the scare. I ended up getting kicked in a very sensitive area. The security guard just laughed. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was working a haunted house. I have a really good spot where I hide and scare people. This really hot guy was walking up, and I jumped out and screamed. He punched me in the face. FML
Today, l was crouched on the ground in the doorway at a haunted mansion. It's part of my job here to scare the people passing by. A 12 year-old girl walked by, I grabbed her leg, and she kicked me in the face. FML
Today, I was attacked by clowns at work. I don't work at the circus. FML
Today, I went to a "haunted" theme park. Actors had been trying to scare me the whole night. I was waiting by an outdoor heater for my friend when a hand came out of nowhere close to my face. I screamed at the top of my lungs, but it was only some chick wanting to warm her hands by the heater. FML
Today, I started my new job at a haunted house. I figured I'd change clothes when I got home, since my bloody shirt and zombie makeup were blatantly just an outfit. I barely made it 10 minutes before I was pinned to the ground at gunpoint, cuffed, and needing new underwear. FML
Today, I was working at Chuck-E-Cheese. If that isn't enough, I was put in the mouse costume. Due to the disgusting hot smell and atmosphere in the costume, I fainted in front of a birthday party. I awoke to a little boy screaming who then kicked me in the face and ran. FML
Today, I worked all year hand making a costume, just to get kicked out of the Renaissance Faire in an hour. The people next to me got so drunk, they started puking, and just the sight of it makes me puke too. Security wouldn’t listen when I tried to tell them I hadn’t had a single drink. FML
Today, rehearsals started for the haunted house I act in. As we were running through the house and reading through our lines, the set designer turned on the hydraulic pump to test something, accidentally causing a tumbling bookshelf effect to go off. Guess where I was standing. FML
Today, I was sitting in my basement watching IT. I heard a knocking at my door and turned the outside lights on to see a clown outside staring in at me. I freaked out and began screaming and jumping around like a Chihuahua on drugs. My friends told me it should be on YouTube within the week. FML
Today, I was working the graveyard shift as a security guard. I fell asleep in my car doing paperwork around 2 am. When my supervisor came to check on me, he pounded on my window, wearing a "Scream" mask. I panicked and pepper sprayed him. Too bad my window was closed. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You were in a haunted maze?? You could have killed them with a chainsaw and no one would have noticed!! Everyone would have assumed their dismembered bodies were just props. You have to recognize opportunity when it's staring you in the face or you won't get anywhere in life.

Uh no I disagree. It's his job to scare people which he was doing. it's security's job to control unruly people and the guard didn't do shit.

Haunted maze in February? Right. Whatever.

I thought that too. But all FMLs have to start with "Today," so technically OP could just be remembering this from October or something.

YDI for donning a clowns suit. Especially Pennywise. People are instinctively going to want to kick your ass... it's the same thing for mimes. Nobody likes a mimes.

Trying to scare a bunch of drunken morons was pretty stupid. YDI. Besides that, the security guard's real job, despite the name, is really just to observe and report; they're not necessarily required to do anything more than that (unless the particular job entails more than just the basics). Actually dropping the bomb on a load deserving twits is a job is a description reserved for the PD, unless you're lucky enough to have a bouncer at the haunted maze. I'm guessing not....

Uh... it's his job to scare the customers. If they paid to go in orwhatever, whether or not they're drunk, they wanna be scared.

I worked at a haunted house for three years. The first thing they told us was that if someone is acting like that, we need to keep ourselves safe and tell somebody imediately what we saw. Who cares what they paid, if they're going to run around acting like idiots, breaking things, and, worse, hurting people, they really don't deserve any kind of service. OP is stupid for just ignoring the situation and scaring anyway.

I'd do the same (not breaking props, just beating you up-soberly might I add), I'm terribly afraid of clowns. But then again, Tim Curry was Pennywise, so I could just think of him as a transvestite.

YDI for being a clown. Clowns a freaking evil. At least it wasn't a Barney suit.

FYL man that sucks. To the "YDI for being a clown people", STFU. He is supposed to be someone that scares the piss out of you. Hell you PAY to get scared shitless. Not like he's walking around in public as the clown and got kicked.

Oh No! There is NEVER a good reason to dress as a clown. Life is scary enough if you live it. I'd rather pay someone to take me to my happy place. {cue the strippers}

I hate clowns too. But if you're going to pay to enter a haunted maze, what do you expect? Actually I really only hate clowns on stilts but still...
