CVG about 1980s:

Big party/dinner/dance was planned in the DL hangar. Scrubbed and waxed, tables & chairs, orchestra in place for the event. DL even had a special fire manager to keep the system from inadvertently discharging until the fire brigade was positioned and the foam disabled.

It all went to hell in a handbasket. $250k damages, mostly to the symphony's instruments.
