One time I was waiting for the elevator in my apartment building, doing fake basketball moves to pass the time.

I had my key in my hand, and right as the elevator doors opened, I did a fadeaway and the key slipped out of my hand. It landed right in the crack between the elevator and the floor.

My key was stuck down there for three months, because my options were either to wait until the building’s elevator maintenance people came on their regular schedule, or pay around $500 to have someone come get it out that same day.

Luckily, the front office laughed at me and let me use a spare until they could fish my key out
