A man named Connor had to be rescued after getting stuck in a giant decorative urn at a New Year's Eve party in Mountain Brook, Alabama.

Heralding in the New Year with bombastic flair is an opportunity many celebrants look forward to.

But the hijinks seen at parties, especially at ones where a significant amount of alcohol is consumed, often lead to huge misses that can make revelers regretful and embarrassed.


One unfortunate New Year's Eve partygoer named Connor found himself stuck in 2023, so to speak, while attempting to emerge for his grand 2024 entrance.

On December 31, 2023, Casual Thusday's page on X (formerly Twitter) apprised the internet about a developing story in Alabama.

"We have a man stuck in a decorative urn at this Mountain Brook house party."
"I repeat, we have a drunk man stuck in a large decorative urn at this Mountain Brook house party."

The post concluded with "Details as they develop" with no clip of the party foul.

An update later indicated:

"He was laughing at first but now he’s starting to get upset."
"The women are trying to comfort him. There is talk of attempting to break the urn."

Social media users didn't have to imagine the mayhem, as a clip of the stunt was eventually obtained and shared on @TheWapphehouse's X page with the following caption:

"AN ANONYMOUS SOURCE SENT ME MORE VIDEO OF CONNOR STUCK IN THE URN AND GETTING CHISELED OUT I REPEAT: MORE OF CONNOR STUCK IN THE URN."


The update on Casual Thursday's thread continued describing the rescue scene.

"The host has dispatched a friend to retrieve his sledge hammer."
"My view is obscured by the gathering crowd but I can hear the tinkering of a hammer and makeshift screwdriver chisel, mixed with the frustrated, panicked grunts of the captive."

Finally, Connor was free. But at what cost?

According to the thread, the destroyed urn was alleged to be valued from "$500 to as high as $3000 US American dollars."



The expensive vase wasn't the only casualty.


"Drinking alone and having a cigarette, still pantsless in the corner of the yard," was probably not the way Connor imagined to be ringing in the new year.

After indicating Connor was sent home in an Uber, the thread concluded with the following sensible safety reminder.

"Happy New Year everyone. Stay safe out there. Remember, decorative urns always look bigger from the outside."


In honor of the New Year and of the unusual debacle, X users raised their cups to roast the poor guy.




















Here is our urn-est survivor, safe and reunited with his trousers.


It wasn't the wisest way to start the new year, but it's a stunt Connor hopes will be forgotten and never brought to mind.

Happy New Year!

People Describe The Most Unbelievable Coincidences They've Ever Experienced

Coincidence is defined as "a remarkable concurrence—the fact of two or more events or circumstances happening or existing at the same time—of events or circumstances without apparent causal connection."

However, we often don't use the term exactly that way. The requirement of concurrence is often missing in the colloquial usage of "coincidence." We use it more often to mean "something that's not planned or arranged but seems like it is."
