Funniest networking stories

Any funny networking stories from stupid things you've done/said? I'll start: While I was interning at a bank during the summer I was attempting to network with people from another group I was interested in. I emailed this one girl and set up a call with her and everything only to find out once we were on the call that she was also just an intern a couple weeks into the program like myself. Lovely girl but the call didn't exactly have the same impact I was originally planning
