The principal flutist in an orchestra with whom I regularly sub forgot her flute. She was teaching lessons that afternoon before rehearsal, and had her flute on the stand. We got in the car, drove an hour to rehearsal, and then opened her case and realized the flute was still on the stand at home! Luckily the piccolo player had his flute, and wasn't using it.
This week, I was teaching lessons for Flute, Clarinet, Sax, Violin and Cello. Got to the store, and realized that I forgot the saxophone. Unfortunately, he was in a small fender-bender just before his lesson time, and I told him to not worry about it, and to take care of the legal matters.
I've also gone many times to play tenor sax, and forgot my harness and good reeds in my alto case (the one I play the most). I have a spare neck strap and reeds in the case, but it just wasn't the same.
