I do not have a Yellowstone story how about Garden of the Gods outside Denver.I went to Yellowstone, had to see "Old Faithful.....got there, and had time before she blew. So if you've been there, everyone starts congregating around this line that you can't cross, trying to get the best place to observe. As it gets closer we are watching the smoke, and the bubbling. Then it shoots up a foot or so....and I say to everyone is that it....not impressed at all....someone mentioned it's just starting. .. so I'm like so that was like a "premature ejaculation"? The laughs I got were great, but the looks of horror on the new parents w/ children faces was priceless.Dirty ole man...I know.

Fam and I went out west for a week. The Garden has huge boulders that really do look like outsized rocks for a god.
Well anyways we parked and walked up and everywhere you see signs
" Do not climb on rocks"
So of course there 25 kids climbing the rocks. So my really bright 6 year old son asks why while pointing at the sign and reading it
So to prevent my son from climbing these rocks I just happen to say " that's just God's way of weeding out the stupid."
Well.this dude popped up off his fender like I just called him a dumbass. Started with WTF do you mean by that and starts the pacing and huffing. And just then a kid comes sliding down the scree side of the rock on his face. This rock is 40 feet high but the scree is like 20 so it was not fatal but it sure looked like broken bones.
Turned out at the top of the scree there is a split with a channel you could 4 point climb as fast as walking stairs.
Was not this guys kid. It was his son's friend.
Bet that was a convo.......
