Heckles
Forget the drunk bloke at the back yelling incoherent nonsense. Sometimes a well placed heckle can raise a mediocre act to a brilliant night out.
Tell us your best heckles and, if you are brave, the retorts that put you back in your place like the maggot you are.

Fireworks
Our local school has an annual 'twilight sports night' which ends with a traditional crappy 10 minute fireworks display. A few years back it was particularly crappy because the insurance company suddenly demanded they pay an exuberant policy. With the policy paid for out of the fireworks budget there wasn't much left for actual fireworks, so the crappy 10 minute display turned into a crappy 1 minute display. Seriously, it was like one skyrocket and a party popper.
Everyone there remained standing, uneasily, waiting for the real display to start thinking this must have been a warm-up or something, surely there must be more, but the penny gradually dropped as the pyrotechnic blokes packed their spent skyrocket into their car and started to drive away.
The crowd began to shuffle home, disappointed and silent, when a 3 year old kid yelled out “if I’d paid for that, I’d want my money back!” 200 people erupted into laughter and the night was saved.
