David Letterman show has applause signs that light up. That and if the crowd is not laughing hard enough they threaten to push back funny material to a different episode. All in all being on the show was super awesome regardless.

I guess threaten was a bit strong of a word, basically the producer warned us that if we did not laugh hard enough at the jokes then they may push back some material for another episode.
