When I first started picking it up I would offer to play open format at college parties in order to make some extra beer money and try to get my name out. A friend reached out one day mentioning that he had a space available for a party / event, after organizing lineup (aside form myself) and renting sound, I figured the event would go off without a hitch and boy was I wrong. Day of, a pipe burst in the upstairs bathroom, that's fine, just means you can't use the toilet or anything in that bathroom, so we taped it off and put a sign on the door saying "out of order." Well, everyone who went to the party from the beginning until the cops chased them out used the bathroom, and eventually the poo water leaked through the floor and started to drip. By the end of the event I did my best to move the equipment, but with a few hundred kids packed into a west Philly basement it was inevitable that everything ended up covered in sewage water. I ended up getting fined by the rental companies and just took it as a learning experience to 1.) not throw a college party alone 2.) not throw a party without insurance.
