Mic drop

[edit]

Don Rickles is first person I saw do a mic drop. Multiple times. Gastroguru (talk) 05:41, 17 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Dr. Seuss originated the mic drop.

[edit]

Dr. Seuss seems to have originated this in 1953, in The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T. John Nagle (talk) 19:17, 24 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Practical Implications

[edit]

If attributable criticism is available, it should be added here.

Judy Garland

[edit]

I have removed the flat statement that Judy Garland was the first recorded mic drop on the Ed Sullivan show. The source didn't support it and there's no audio/video or written support that I can find. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 23:29, 4 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Mic drop

[edit]

Did the X factor singer mason noise make the whole mic drop a world wide sinario. I'm in my fifties and have never seen it so viral as it is now. 80.192.190.230 (talk) 00:06, 2 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

[edit]

The "External Links" section includes a link to a website that sells microphones made for dropping. Is that appropriate? 216.49.138.181 (talk) 00:44, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
