Share your weird tango stories...

My friend said one time she was dancing tango with a complete stranger, eyes closed and all cosey... and she felt something wet on her face... He had used his tongue to stick his wintergreen Lifesaver to her cheek!!!

Me, you're going to have to translate that for non-Americans - WTH is a wintergreen Lifesaver!? :D

Wow Me... I think your story wins. That's definitely a w.t.f. moment. :D

That is disgusting. She should have just slapped the sh*t of him and left him standing there. There is no reason for a woman to tolerate that type of behavior.
 
I think almost all of people in tango community are mad (or crazy, or abnormal). So its very easy to see weird things in milongas :)
 
Let's give the gentleman the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps he was merely placing it there for a moment, intending to retrieve it at the end of the tanda.
 
Any more strange stories you'd like to share?

No names / locations, obviously. ;)

Arrived for a private lesson in a private house as the previous student was leaving (so, not much time lapse between lessons)

Went inside... no teacher.
Waited awhile... no teacher.
Looked outside... no teacher
Called out... no teacher.
Tentatively began exploring the house in case there was something wrong...

Found teacher fast asleep on the bed in his skivies.

Went back to the studio and made lots of noise. Just as I was about to give up and leave, he came in apologizing (dressed, thank God!)...

Then proceeded to give me the most lame lesson I've ever had. Not only did he spend most of it overworking a move that seemed almost intended to sexually stimulate him (and had me on one foot for the ENTIRE TIME, resulting in pain in the joints of my leg) he gave me almost NO feedback or correction for the entire lesson. Barely spoke!

Everyone else who had a lesson with him loved him and said he taught them a lot... :confused:

Oh, seems to be a true tango teacher !

Here´s is one about who usually wears espandrilles at privates. Kind of a disdain, isn´t it?
