marvee and WinnieNicklaus, I think the psychology of heckling is a fascinating subject. I’d like to find a good book about it. I think heckling is rooted in the desire to syphon attention from the person who drew the crowd to the location by claiming to be of superior talent/wit/intelligence… but I suppose there may be different motivations and needs involved for each heckler.
