Humor / Meme What's the most unique excuse you've heard for leaving a raid?

A few years back (can't remember the exact raid, version, or server), we were midway through a raid after downing a couple of bosses. Suddenly, one of our newer guild members, a gnome mage, if I recall correctly., chimes in on voice chat: "Sorry guys, I need to go. My girlfriend has just shaved."

We were all a bit confused at first, but then it hit us. Booty call had higher priority than the raid. It became an instant classic in our guild and gave us some great laughs.

You got any good ones?

Had a guy disconnected in a AQ in Classic. Didn’t say anything. He came back near the end of the raid saying that some friends picked him up and went to a bar. Everyone in the raid didn’t even know what to say. But it has been a funny memory ever since.
