* The Disneyland California stage show of ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'' featured Genie doing this in the last performance. Normally, when Jafar gets the lamp, Genie just makes one or two jokes before moving on to granting his wishes. For the last performance he goes on and on, making jokes about past masters and comparing Jafar to other Disney villains (and even [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]]!) Part of the gag is Jafar's increasingly frustrated expression and BigNo when Genie asks ''him'' "are we done here?"

A gag that goes excessively far and beyond a tolerable length. The concept is that something happens repeatedly, to the point of boredom. Then it ''keeps going'', to the point where it, in theory, actually becomes funny again. Essentially, the sheer length of the gag ''becomes'' the gag. This is very difficult to pull off well - there has to be the sense that the characters are themselves helpless to end the gag, and as exasperated as the audience.

The scrum was reset so many times that one Welsh prop that got yellow carded early on in added time and suspended for 10 minutes as a result was able to come back and continue. Finally, at 99:55, 19 minutes and 55 seconds into added time, France finally scored a try, drawing level. The clock was stopped there for the conversion attempt, which was not usually done.
