This was a few years ago, I was a new CFI at a new airfield in a plane I'd only flown 2 or 3 times before with the Chief Pilot.

I was teaching the students a takeoff at a very busy airfield (Busiest single runway airport in the U.S. last time I checked).

"We use the rudder pedals to align ourself with the centerline, when we reach .. " etc etc through rotate. At this point I realized the normally very congested freq was silent...

Me: (release PTT)

ATC: Thank you for the wonderful takeoff lesson Nxxx

Me: You'll receive my bill at the end of the month. Please pay cash.

They still make fun of me for that one.
