crasher
Shows up anyway
A crasher is someone who shows up uninvited, especially to a party or event: wedding crasher, party crasher.
The term implies boldness or rudeness—crashers weren't asked and often aren't welcome.
Less commonly, crasher refers to someone or something that crashes in a physical sense.
