Three Epic Ways People Have Quit Their Jobs

This past Sunday, veteran Buffalo Bills cornerback Vontae Davis quit during halftime, unsuited and left the stadium in street clothes, and then proceeded to retire from football.

This got me thinking...

What are the most epic ways you have ever seen someone quit their job?

Other Examples:
Goldman Sachs Executive, Greg Smith, Quits
In a frank opinion article for The New York Times titled Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs, Greg Smith publicly states why he no longer chooses to work for GS.

I am sad to say that I look around today and see virtually no trace of the culture that made me love working for this firm for many years. I no longer have the pride, or the belief... I was selected as one of 10 people (out of a firm of more than 30,000) to appear on our recruiting video, which is played on every college campus we visit around the world... I knew it was time to leave when I realized I could no longer look students in the eye and tell them what a great place this was to work.
