Part of the fun of roleplaying is that in later years you can reminisce on all the great things that happened.
The weird thing is that some of the best memories come from those times when everything went wrong and the party got trapped, or severely damaged, or even completely wiped out.
When playing make sure you make plenty of those memories.
