Next to getting the plow stuck in clay, and having it stand straight up and stall after jumping off of it, which wasn't funny at the time, but sure was a site to stand back and look at, the best was the neighbor buddy when we were just kids.

Took the snowmobiles down to the lake, as always did, but the temps had been on the rise and the ice was thinning. The parents had warned about the ice, keep the snowmobiles off. My buddy didn't listen and did ok for a while, then the snowmobile went through and sank into about 20' of water, or so. Knowing his dad would kill him, he went home and sneaked the Deere out to ???, but I guess it made sense at the time, I guess. I was just a bystander at that point, and it didn't work too well. He went down the shore embankment on the Deere, crashing through the ice. At least it happened by shore and not way out. Now he had a problem, and had to tell his dad. When his dad arrived, threatening to kill him the whole way there if he was tellin' the truth, there was the Deere in water half way up to the rear axle, half the engine in the water, and the front end bashed in from pushing into the ice. Got the Deere out and got the living snot beat out of him. Got the snowmobile out later in the year.
