The ding ding ditch post reminded me.

I assumed some drunk friends were doing that one night to our apartment, but nope just shotguns in the face and a hall full of oinkers. Never found out why - just that they got a report of violence breaking out at a large party in our apartment (nope just a handful of dudes in an apartment watching space odyssey during finals week lol.)

Not swatted, but I was in the van when a strike was conducted on a coworker who had apparently been stealing from the contractor I worked for who was a previously convicted violent felon. Not fun. Pigs everywhere, heavily armed. They got us all out of the van pretty roughly. They pinned the bag of weed I had on their target, just to put more charges on him, so at least I wasn't collateral damage, but they made sure to good and scare me before they let me go.
