The crowd laughed, and then went, "OOOOOOoooooohhh..."
Years of doing comedy taught me that that sound meant only one thing : There was an MCA member in the audience.
"Is there an MCA member here?"

The crowd enthusiastically pointed to a gentleman standing right at the back, who was a very good sport, I must say.
"This is awkward. I didn't know you guys actually still exist"
Crowd laughed again.

Finally, I said, "Please sir, you don't have to behave so MCA-like. Here, have a seat.", while I pointed to an empty chair in the front row.
Crowd went ballistic.
I live for moments like this.
Special thanks to the MCA member who was a good sport.
