It took a while for the apathetic and surly staff to get round to clearing it up so in the meantime myself and my companions took great delight in watching the suited and booted hotel guests, who'd consistently treated us conventioneers with scorn, suddenly realise what they'd just stepped in.
The trick with issuing a warning is to do it when it's already too late to stop the next fateful, squelching step.
