When Clapton's attempted to relieve himself on the White House lawn

Washington, February 11 : Legendary rocker Eric Clapton had a terrifying experience when he went to relieve himself on the White House lawn, and was confronted by armed security guards.

The 'Layla' hitmaker revealed that the incident occurred after he played a gig for former US President Bill Clinton and his wife Hilary at the famous Washington D.C. landmark.

He said that he went to relieve himself on the grass in front of the building after coming off stage.

"I had just undone my flies when I hears: 'Don't move!' And there was a SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics) man there pointing an MI6 (gun) at me," Contactmusic quoted him as saying.
