Generally, “FBI” stands for “Federal Bureau of Investigation.” But to one man who was just trying to sleep at a Boston hotel, it’s likely that the “I” now stands for “idiots” or “imbeciles.”

HOW THINGS WENT BAD

According to a report from Boston.com, it all began around 10 p.m. on one night in April, when the FBI and Department of Defense sent personnel to a room in downtown Boston. After bursting in, the agents shoved the male guest into the shower, handcuffed him, and interrogated him for an hour.

WHERE THINGS GOT FLAT-OUT RIDICULOUS

This wasn’t just any guest trying to catch some sleep at the Revere Hotel Boston Common.

But in the spirit of airplanes, “Don’t call me Shirley,” and keep reading.

HERE'S WHERE IT BECOMES A WILL FERRELL MOVIE

The whole thing was part of a – wait for it – FBI and DOD training exercise. The agencies had an actor in one of the rooms ready to play the role of a criminal – but somehow let the trainees (who probably also had no idea what was happening) burst in on a pilot who likely won’t need coffee for the rest of his career. Luckily, things were worked out without anyone being injured, and the pilot declined treatment on the scene.
