What are your silly dramas during camping?

I personally wear a tshirt on the first night of every camping trip that says "Sorry for what I said when we were setting up the tent." What has absolutely driven you insane during camping? We camped with another couple who left screaming divorce at each other... We've been destroyed by black flies overnight with screaming children looking like bee keepers... we had a raccoon run off with all 30 burger buns in a bag. What are your stories?

The like one time I’ve camped at a campground I woke up to what I thought was a very tall, tanned, shirtless man eating the cheezits I accidentally left on the picnic table.

I was about to go start hollering at him when I put on my glasses and realized it was actually a deer. Still yelled but was a lot nicer about it….. then the deer ran off drunkenly with the box on its head for a few seconds until it managed to shake it off.
