Don’t eat poop especially if it falls out of the sky onto birthday cake

Posted on by

I’ve been to some uncomfortable family gatherings where a few too many beer have led to awkward conversations. My experiences seem like a, uh, party next to what AOL reports happened to folks in Pennsylvania during a teenager’s sweet 16 party: the sky rained poop.

According to My Fox Philly, human waste rained down from the sky just after Jacinda blew out the candles on her cake, coating her guests and the rented canopy in feces. Her family believes the waste came from planes that were flying overhead and may have improperly disposed of the aircraft’s bathroom contents.

“Out of nowhere, from the sky, comes a bunch of feces, lands on her,” Jacinda’s dad told Fox.

The only thing more embarrassing than your party being ruined by poop rain is having your dad tell the local news about it afterwards.
