If you have ever sat on hold trying to cancel something you no longer want, this one is going to make your blood boil in a way you did not expect. It starts small, a gym that will not let go without two more payments, a provider charging three hundred dollars just to walk away, and it builds to a story about a couple who lost their home to wildfire and still had to fight to be released from a bill.

Then things take a turn toward the absurd. A festival built around chaos and clowns ends up producing a real arrest, and not for the reason you would guess walking in.

And if you have ever wondered what a piece of fried chicken history is actually worth to the right buyer, an auction in Kentucky just answered that question in a way that will make you look twice at your own junk drawer.

Topics: cancellation fee horror stories, wildfire internet bill, festival drug bust, Colonel Sanders auction, consumer complaints
