6,000 crickets released directly in the audience. (I hope from multiple points.) This is glorious. 😁

Maybe you don't mind if a cricket jumps on you. I'd shudder and shake it off, demonstrating my lack of courage and dexterity. A lot of people will scream, jump around, or run.

Picture these assholes attending their favorite panel at HomophobiaCon. A cricket jumps on someone, she brushes it away in disgust. Another just feels something caught in her hair. She bats at it, looks into it's beady, insectoid eyes and screams. More screams. The Homophobe in Charge can't hold the audience's attention.

There is some sort of insect infestation. Are they harmful? They don't know. But they have to cancel their homophobia speech because nobody wants to sit in a room with thousands of crickets.

This is straight out of an 80's movie and I am here for it!
