25-30 years ago our family walked into church a little late, in our father's day best, right up to the front. They were already singing the first song. Before we could get the hymnals opened to the right page, the song ended. And the minister gave the benediction and the sevice ended. Followed by a roar of laughter.
My church does service an hour early in the summer (10 instead of 11).
We start on Father's day. Every year people make a point to remind us specifically. Still.
I was a little late, but we have a baby. Mom and Dad weren't there when we strolled in. During the second song I snuck out and called them. Dad answered the home phone. I asked "did you forget something?" We laughed as he went to tell mom. They made it for the last song :)
The teasing probably won't stop soon.
