Weirdest Way to get a flat
Yeah, I dented two rims and flattened two tires (both front) gag. Oh well. And thanks for my bday wishes! :D
side note: getting a flat from a chicken bone is probably the funniest/most unfortunate thing I have ever heard hahaha!

#1) I have a tail silencer that I take out for shows and display sitting on the ground under the exhaust tip. I forgot about it and went to back up to leave the show, the narrower tube part ended up cutting a gash in the sidewall 
#2) When I was in college, I was parking at student apartments and ran over the metal cone tip that's on some ballpoint pens. Worse than just puncturing the tire, the cone was hollow and didn't collapse, so it was like sticking a metal drinking straw right in the tire. I could hear the air rushing out and was completely flat in about 10 seconds.
The tire places I've gone to actually keep a can / jar of stuff they've pulled out of tires. Some of it is pretty interesting.

not weird but annoying, Middle of winter in NY, I drop my gf at home, come back to my house and I hear ssssssssssssssssssssss. -.- Had to change my wheel at mid-night in the middle of winter while it was at most 10 degrees outside.
Only weird flat I've had was having a rattlesnake strike the sidewall,
and the kid doing the repair got his finger cut by the fang... had to get the medics to give him the anti-venom.. just in case.......!

First one on the left rear was a rather long nail, the second one on the right rear was a new 3 inch long 1/4 inch bolt and the 8 sided washer attached to it painted white used in the construction of steel buildings. It made the darnest clicking noise because the washer kept it from going into the tire enough to wear smooth. It actually broke some of the very fine steel cords inside the tire. Needless to say I don't rotate the tires since both rears have patches on them.
