My funniest potty experience was taking two straight guys to a gay after hours club in Columbus, Ohio after an Ohio State game.
They didn't want to use the bathroom so we danced for hours but at a certain point they didn't have a choice. They went in the "ladies room" with me naively thinking it was for actual ladies.
It was full of transvestites and crossdressers doing Ecstasy in the corner. There were no doors on the stalls and there were mirrors in front of the stalls. It was the first time I was actually the lookout while a guy used the potty.

My favorite odd potty story is from a Grateful Dead concert. Back in the '90's before Cherry (sic) Garcia moved on. Lake Buckeye, Ohio. 90,000 of your closest friends at an open air venue.
There was a long row of port-a-potties lined against a fence. There were huge lines of ladies waiting for them. The men were being ever gracious and just whizzing against the fence. That way the ladies could have the port-a-potties. It had nothing to do with men having no patience.
I was close to the row of potties whizzing against the fence when a young lady broke from the herd. She couldn't wait. She squatted down next to me, hiked up her skirt and let go. She was awfully chatty with me. Maybe she liked what she saw.

STW - Count me in on that one. 
On that note, have any of you women ever notice that you can TELL when a man designed the ladies room? You know it when you sit down and your knees hit the door of the stall.
And what about those automatic flushers that go off at the most inopportune time?
amwosu, we must have been posting simultaneously in answer to emd's question.

My unsuspecting husband was shocked when recently, at a Broadway theater, he encountered women in the mens room. He was even more shocked when I told him that I have done that on more than one occasion Hey, it beats a hole in the ground!
emd, next time please take a picture of that "bells and whistle" toilet would ya.

OMG Indy! Buckeye Lake... in the 90s... Grateful Dead? Was that you? You know, maybe we shouldn't every try to have an Indy GTG after all.
Actually, I did all my peeing in public at Buckeye Lake in the 80s so it must not have been you.

Champagne to celebrate making it home tonight!!
In a Palm Beach restaurant. The seat had a fresh plastic (like Saran Wrap)cover that automatically recovered the seat when it was flushed. This was several years ago. I had to try it a few times because I couldn't believe it.

That concert was an eye-opener for me amwosu. I'd never before or after seen things like that.
I was smartly dressed in slacks and a polo. People treated me like I was security. There were no umbrellas allowed at the concert (don't know why) but I took my large golf umbrella anyway. No one said a word to me. Though people would huddle around me to get a litte break from the rain.
I guess I didn't look like I'd poke people with the umbrella.

All your hilarious stories made me think of something else....when traveling, of course.
Has anyone else ever seen Ron White's comedy routine (from Blue Collar Comedy Tour)? He talks about traveling to an area where he rode the rapids (I forget where) in the summer, in inner-tubes with a bunch of other folks. He makes a comment about how everybody drank beer on the river ALL DAY LONG and yet nobody ever had to go to the bathroom. I won't go any further. If you've seen it, you know where I'm going.

A margarita tonight at a great local restaurant.
Two bathrooms come to mind...the public toilets literally ON THE SIDEWALK in Paris that clean themselves like a shower when you exit....
shopping in Hong Kong at the Chinese Imports Emporium; a lovely shop with chandeliers...went into the ladies room to find a pit-style hole in the floor and no toilet paper....the joys of travel!!

My teens love Ron White. I haven't heard his story of tubing and drinking but we love the airplane story.
He talks about being drunk even before boarding a small plane. When they begin to have engine difficulty his seatmate says, "How far do you think we can get on one engine?" Ron's response is, "All the way to the scene of the crash...and I bet we bet we beat the paramedics there by 30 minutes."

California white zinfandal, statia. Got out the pretty Christmas goblets. Tastes better that way!
Why is it that some people don't flush the toilet? I can't stand going into a stall, seeing you-know-what inside the water. Enough to make you want to gag!
Several years ago at a soccer game in Milan, Italy (don't ask), in a "ladies" room, with a hole in the ground for the toilet, I opened the door and it was filled with men. No more coffee for me!

I'm with you kopp, but it comes under a Camile Paglia I'm asserting myself manly category.
Some men (NOT ME) do not flush due to pride. "Hey y'all look at what I low-pressure extruded out of my buttocks!"
It's the same way some men (NOT ME) wipe prize winning boogers above the urinal. "Hey y'all look at what I picked out of my nose!"
Gross and why most women, and men too, say "nasty!" when they leave a men's room.
If you're a woman look for the boogers above the urinal as you walk to the stalls. It'll be an eye-opener.

A nice glass of Vouvray followed by a second in just a few minutes is tonight's poison.
Although I have a similar "squatty" story, I thought I"d share a jaw dropping one.
I had to use the restroom prior to a train ride while in France. I don't recall the town, but it was small and only had a unisex restroom. It was sufficiently clean and I was the only one in there. Plenty of time to sit and "think" so I started reading the graffitti on the wall. Well, some of it required my dictionary. Yup, got out the dictionary and my jaw dropped! I couldn't believe some of the "appointments" being made for my very toilet stall! I did double check my watch just to make sure I was "safe!"

indy, I think you're winning!! At a rock concert years ago the guys (to urinate) had to go into a semi-trailer and there was a trough where they did what they had to do. Never knew (nor did I want to) know where it went!
