Can you share a travel softball horror story about bad weather?

Yes. A group had arranged a bucks party at the beach. They had planned beach games and a barbecue. But then a sudden downpour came. The sand became muddy, and the barbecue was ruined. They tried to find shelter under some trees, but it wasn't enough. Everyone was cold, wet, and miserable. The whole day was just a wash - out.

Well, I heard about a school bus driver in a thunderstorm. Lightning struck a tree near the road just as the bus was passing by. The loud noise and the falling branches scared the kids half to death. The driver had to quickly assess if it was safe to continue and also calm the frightened children down. It was a harrowing experience for all.

There was a situation where a team's equipment got lost during travel. All their bats, gloves, and balls were missing. They had to borrow whatever they could from other teams at the tournament. But the borrowed equipment was not the right fit or quality for most of their players, and it really hampered their ability to play well.

I heard about a travel baseball game where the umpire was clearly biased towards one of the teams. He would overlook obvious rule violations by that team while being very strict with the other team. It was so unfair that the team on the receiving end of this bad umpiring felt completely cheated. They lost the game, but more importantly, they lost their trust in the fairness of the competition.

Sure. There was a traveler who booked a luxury resort stay through Costco Travel. When they got there, the resort was undergoing major renovations. There was construction noise all day long, and parts of the resort like the pool and some restaurants were closed. The traveler was not informed about this at all before arrival. They felt very cheated as they had paid a high price for a relaxing vacation.

Here's one. A solo traveler was in a car accident while on a road trip in another country. His travel insurance was meant to cover the cost of vehicle repair and his medical treatment. But the insurance company tried to low - ball the repair estimate and also said that some of his medical treatments were not necessary, so they wouldn't cover them. He had to pay a significant amount from his own savings just to get back on his feet and continue his journey.

Sure. There was a farmer who was growing corn. A massive hailstorm hit his farm. The hailstones were as big as golf balls. They pelted the cornfields, flattening the crops and ruining them completely. The farmer had no way to protect his crop from such a sudden and violent weather event, and he had to bear the loss of an entire season's work.

Well, there was this time when I went hiking. The weather story that day was a bit crazy. At first, it was foggy which made the hike a bit spooky. But as the day progressed, the sun came out and it got really warm. By evening, a strong wind started blowing, making it feel much colder. It was like experiencing three different seasons in one day.

It was a gloomy day, and the rain was like needles poking the ground. The gloomy drizzle continued to fall as if it was bringing a hint of coolness to this beautiful season. The sky was as gray as an old newspaper, covering the earth tightly. The sky was gloomy like a huge black sponge that could fall on us at any time. The sky was gloomy and the rain was pattering down as if it was bringing a hint of coolness to the world.

Sure. There was this hookup where one person started getting really possessive right away. They were asking all these personal questions and acting like they were in a committed relationship after just one hookup. It was really creepy.
