Ask HN: What's your favorite Buddha anecdote?
I'll go first:
Mahakashyapa (lotus), Krishna Gautami (mustard seeds), and the serial murderer who Buddha tamed (I forget his name right now, if I remember I will mention it here).

- gregjor 3y agoTough question. I think of the night Prince Siddhartha got drunk with some of his friends after too much arrack and they tipped over some sleeping cows. Vishnu smiled at their antics but Kamadhenu punished them with nasty hangovers. The story appears in the Sutta Pitaka, I don’t have it handy at the moment.
- fuzztester 3y agotipped over sleeping cows, eh? and arrack. Seems more like you tripped on too much tipple, before writing your comment.
