Oh yeah! Happened pretty frequently when I was a kid...barefoot and all. Then a couple of times since I moved to Ohio and spend a lot of time walking around in the grass. I am not alergic so it wasn't much of problem except it hurts.
Last summer was real bad for yellow jackets. The guy mowing our pasture as stung 3-4 times when he mowed over the nest, then my husband was stung. Later that day I bent over to pull some weeds and felt like I had been b---tch slapped - 3 stings to my cheek, eyelid and chin. Forturnately I had just brought iced tea to the guys so I grabbed the ice from the glass and slapped it on the stings.....I am smarter now. I go armed with stick and a can of wasp spray.
