My best CLEARING THE ROOM memory was back in the I.T. Data Center days.
We were having a problem with one of the Mainframes and about 10 Techies were standing in a group in front of the consoles trying to fix it.
One of our Operators let loose with a Beer and Egg air biscuit and
they all ran to the back of the room.
No one came back up front for like 10 Min to work the problem.
All the while the Mainframe was down and no one could access it...
