In 9th grade, I blocked for a good five minutes when answering a question during class. I had just studied the material the previous night, so I was almost certain that I would get the answer right. Lo and behold, after pushing for five minutes to get out the word "yes", the correct answer was "no". Almost wanted to cry at the time, but in hindsight it's kinda funny.
