My husband has pulled some pretty good ones! Here's one that he's having a hard time living down:

My husband is a farmer and a couple of years ago at harvest the combine broke down. It needed to be welded so he decided to pull it home. He hooked onto the combine, pulling the combine backwards, and headed home. Between where he was at and home there is a bridge with a very short bannister, maybe 2 - 2 1/2feet tall or so. He thought about the combine header catching on the bannister when he went over but since he can lift the header when he drives over he thought that he was ok. As he drove over he heard a loud racket and knew immediately that he had caught. He forgot that the header was still lowered and almost ripped the whole header clear off of the combine!!! He still gets teased about it.

When we were first married my husband hauled a lot of hay and always used hay hooks to move the hay around. One day he was on the tractor doing something with the hay and he threw his hay hooks on the ground because he didn't need them at the time. You guessed it, after messing a while with the tractor he noticed that one of his tires was going down. Well, he knew that he had ran over a hay hook, then he thought "Great, now where's the other hay hook?" He backed up a little to look for it and it showed up in the other tire!!!
