Your first clipless fail? Here's mine

I got my new pedals installed last week and other gear. I couldn't go for a ride until today because of the weird weather in Central-Cal. Anyways I get pumped up today because it's pretty sunny outside with the exception of a few clouds. I take my bike and leave my neighborhood and come to my first red light, i steadily slow down and make my stop. As I stop I forget to pop out my sole from the pedal. I make a very embarassing fall onto my side. A grandma who was taking her grandkid for a walk said, "That's what you get for stopping" in a joking manner. Of course it was nothing serious as I didn't scratch my bike or my shoes...

Another fail was when I had to cross the street (was a T intersection so I had to use the pedestrian walk) and I had to walk across because I didn't have time to pop my sole in. I probably looked like an idiot...

Yep, haha...what's your first clipless fail?
