This was actually my heckle
Went to see Rik Mayall in the Sunderland Empire in the mid-80s, and his routine contained a certain amount of the same material he had included a few weeks before on his BBC 'Wogan' appearance (which I'd taped and watched over and over again). I was young. And very excited. So when he said 'Can you see alright up there?' (balcony crowd: 'Yes!') my sister and I joined in his retort (in low voices to ourselves) 'Well what're you doing wearing glasses then?' and so on. Ho! ho! weren't we funny?
A few gags later I knew exactly what would make me look really clever and cool. So when he japed 'Why did the monkey fall out of the tree?' I yelled at the top of my voice 'Because it was dead!'
Rik didn't appreciate it. He screamed "FUCK YOU!!!!!!!" and proceeded to run about the stage for the next 5 minutes exhibiting as many different ways of giving V signs to me as possible.
He got a much bigger laugh with my help, and about six months later a friend of my sister's claimed to see the same thing happen at Newcastle City Hall, so he probably planted someone in the crowd to do it.
And he's a millionnaire, so he owes me.

I couldn't ever bring myself to say it
There was a boy in my class at school who was often referred to as 'Biff'.
He had spina bifida.
To cheer myself up, there was another with a bit of a square heed and even squarer haircut who got called 'Herman'. Happily, he didn't have any such congenital condition, so it was perfectly alright to rip the piss and make his life a misery.
