if i had a nickel for every time..... 
this one was from a random coolant hose that burst open due to high pressure from a clogged radiator.
and this car below has seen dozens of towtruck miles, but my favorite picture is being "towed" off the drift course, after my AOS dumped a bucket load of oil into my intake on the track. Once the car was off the track I was able to identify what was happening and then run the car for a good while to clear out the oil and smoke.

OK, sissies... here is my pics.... the ONLY times either of my p-cars (since becoming my P-cars) have seen a trailer...
At a fuel stop..
When I picked her up in western Illinois... the day after Christmas 2008.. Drove up, stayed the night, and drove back home next day..
At a rest stop, about 10:30 PM somewhere in Ohio I believe... but I could be wrong...
And lastly.. my favorite from the trip, was my Avatar on here for a while... Worth mentioning, fuel mileage is the same without any trailer at all... The trailer I used is fully enclose quad beam, 3500lbs... I figured this trip I was pulling close to 7000 lbs... for a bit over 600 miles, through the mountains of WV...

if i took a picture every time the car was towed somewhere i could probably fill a page...here's a few, the first from right after the car died and wouldn't restart on the chesapeake bay bridge, the second was resulting from that...when i was taking the car over to my buddy's garage to replace the optispark distributor.
