Winner:
Academy of Music, Philadelphia 1982: Watching as my roadie dumps a coil or 4/0 down a stage hatch and hearing the scream from the person whom it landed on below deck; The Union Electrical Chief. Cost me a lot of humble pie, and ended the career of one roadie. (He was officially banned from the theater.)
Second Place:
1976: Wading through two feet of water in a flooded basement near freezing (It was an old Ski Lodge) and having to do the tap while standing on a beer compressor to stay dry. In the middle of said operation, the compressor started up!
Runner up:
Watching a house electrician bug my white camlock tail onto one of the hots and trying to figure out how to tell the guy (who had quite an attitude) that what he was doing was wrong!
