HecklesForget 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.

Tumbleweed moment...The MC set himself up beautifully. He dodged a bullet. Just.
At a comedy night at my local theatre, there were some young people (foolishly) in the front row and they were ripe for the piss-taking. The MC was pretty good actually, and he had been “using” these kids through the night. Between the 2nd and 3rd acts he thought he’d get a bit risqué with one of the young women. He must have been in his 40s and so asked her if she had trouble from older men in bars chatting her up and:
“You know, asking you to show them your minge?” Cue chuckles from audience. The young woman was mightily embarrassed, and the MC asked how old she was.
“16” was the reply.
Collective sharp intake of breath.
Tumbleweed.
His response?
“16? Me too!” And then while turning away “Phew, nearly had a Gary Glitter moment there….”
