In the eternal battle between expectations and reality, reality is practically undefeated. Which is why you’ve gotta set your expectations low! (Just kidding, or am I?)
What is definitely true is that these people set their expectations way too high and they paid the price for it in the form of humility and hilarious disappointment.
Here are 20+ times people’s expectations didn’t quite match reality and the corresponding failures were just right for comedy.
