I ended one of my EB superdays with "Hopefully I did well enough for you guys to hire me!" And I proceeded to have the most awkward laugh in the world. The partner did not seem to like it, but oh well. Obviously did not get the offer
Not something that I did specifically but the fire alarm went off when I was about 3 minutes into my interview with Houlihan Lokey. Interviewer had a military background, so he was probably pressed but there was not much I could do.
