Thankfully have never had a blind date, unless meeting someone from a personal ad for coffee counts as a blind date -- seems more myopic than blind to me, since you're starting out with at least a photo and some profile text in those cases.
Worst practically-blind sort-of-date was a year or two ago, when some guy from another floor of my office building asked me out to lunch. He was a cutie, so I said yes. But, while standing in line to order at the deli, his first topic of conversation was, "Are your exes all bastards?" When I looked at him in confusion, he clarified, "because all of my exes are *****es." Oh boy, that right there was enough for me, thank you. Later in the same lunch, he confided he had not one, but two ex-wives. Much later, a few months at least, he came across my personal ad on match.com and messaged me out of the blue to say 'hi'. The message of course included a link to his profile, so I had a look, and saw he had 'reduced' his age by at least ten years. kekeke...
