I've got some good ones.
I was in Tijuana, Mexico's "Only 5 star Hotel" (Equivalent to a 3.5 star in the US) and was getting to stay for free because the promoter of the band had some kind of hookup. I was technically in the band, but didn't play any instruments or sing, I just dressed up in a Polar Bear costume, riled up the crowd, and entered the pit....anyways...
The band was playing the first ever Metal/Rap concert in TJ. They were co-headlining with Cypress Hill and Cypress Hill backed out at the last minute and a riot ensued. Mainly because everyone had shown up to see Cypress Hill.
We get back to the hotel after the riot at around 2:30 in the morning. Sat in the Lobby until around 4:00 in the morning and finally got to go up to the room. Nice room. Went to sleep. At around 7:30 in the Morning the Hotel Manager is knocking on our door asking just wtf we are doing in his hotel room? We were all 20 year old kids who had no idea what was going on. Apparently the rooms weren't paid for and he asked who was going to pay for it. We didn't know what to do so pretty much he kicked us out after taking a photocopy of all of our California I.D.s
A week later my car was broken into. And back window smashed out. I live in one of the nicer neighborhoods in San Diego. Don't know if there was any connection.
