From the contributor:

This story was told to me by a roommate, who witnessed this event. This is one of the funniest things I have ever heard, and is great to randomly quote.

Setting: a popular grocery store, past the check out lines, near the automatic doors.

Character: African-American woman, wearing a traditional African dress.

As she is trying to leave the store, a ham falls out from under her dress. She takes a look around, sees people looking at her and says:

“For real! Who trew dat ham at me?”
