Oh my - you couldn't make it up...

Kazakhstan's shooting team has been left stunned after a comedy national anthem from the film Borat was played at a medal ceremony at championships in Kuwait instead of the real one. The team asked for an apology and the medal ceremony was later rerun.

That's breath-taking.

When I was in the military, we used to add "ski" on the end of words... like brewski. Don't ask me why, we thought it was funny. Anyway, I answered the phone one day to a colonel that asked for Captain Lewinski and I started laughing since the guy's name was really Lewin. The colonel wasn't pleased.

This kind of reminds of that.
