Gone Fishin'
The story goes that Louis XVI decided to have the Estates-General chamber painted, but failed to communicate this to the Estates-General. The EG's arrived, found the chamber locked and guarded, and assuming the worse met at a nearby Tennis court and voted to not disband until the French Constitution was settled, signifying the first time the French Citizens formally stood opposed to the King. Had he gave them a heads up, then it's unlikely they would have made their oath, which means that the revolution looses one of its triggers...I'm interested to know what that's all about tbh.
