The best one I've had was on a socket 939 when I pulled the heatsink off only to realise that my cpu was attached to the underside of it, and that I'd bent a load of bins in the process. Good times.
 
I did that once, it just pulled it out apart from one pin on the corner, which it tore off.

It was a P4 from a free computer I'd got given that I was gutting for spares, but still made me sad. :(
 
Interesting, I didn't realise that either :).
