Caught off guard

Yesterday’s question:

If something catches you off guard, it means that you didn’t expect it.  You were surprised/you didn’t see it coming.

Examples from the web:

He’s got a lot of tricky moves, so make sure he doesn’t catch you off guard!

The soldiers moved in quickly,hoping to catch the enemy troops off guard.

think I caught him off guard when I told him I was resigning.
