Incidentally, when you hang someone, do you have to use rated hardware?
Of course you do. Saftey first, you wouldn't want anybody getting hurt.

Thats a 200 pound dead hung load. Make sure to use grade 80 chain.
You mean that white plastic chain from home depot doesn't work?
As for food, Lollies and bottled water only in the booth. No chocolate, soft drinks, pizza. That lives in the loading dock!
Anyways, a few cast members decided to go up there and sneak around. Meanwhile, down below, I'm conducting an orchestra rehearsal and I hear and insane amount of feedback from these CMs playing with the sound board. After devouring their souls, the next day I gathered all of the cast for music rehearsal (Im also the music director) and before we did anything, I made the entire cast do jumping-jacks while singing "It's a small world" 300 time!
No one ever went in the booth again
Off topic-
Anyone else have fun during shows or rehearsals soloing someones wireless mic to listen to their conversations? xD
Fortunately, the entrance to the lighting booth at my high school is on a different floor than the auditorium entrance. It's also located inside a hallway that's considered a restricted area for students. So you either have to use the service elevator which requires a key, or you have to go through a doorway which is locked 90% of the time. All of that plus the fact that most people don't even know how to get up there greatly reduces the amount of traffic in and out of the booth...
