Reminds me of my speech class back in college! We had to do a speech with a prop. One of the students was a Native American Indian. At the start of the speech he passed out plates of food on crackers. I got mine and I put it down. I could tell it snelled like Alpo the dog food I fed our dogs. However, most of the class ate it without any thought. Including the teacher who ate mine also! "What you have been eating is the staple of the American Indian's diet. It's dog food." He stated starting his speech. I began laughing and everyone was gaging and the speech teacher was about to barf! It's still funny yet to me all these years later. And yes the Indian got an A+ on his speech.
As a former Public Speaking instructor, I might have given this student an A depending on the purpose the speech. It does draw attention as long as it relates to an appropriate topic.
