Here's a Usenet discussion from alt.magic where magicians and others were discussing the roast:Penn & Teller-Bad call @ World Seminier

Here is a posted excerpt from an email:

You missed a really amazing Amazing Johnathan roast. Penn came in with Teller nailed to a cross, dressed like Jesus Christ getting a b*** j** by a midget. It really offended some people. Also there were great jokes by Siegfried (surprise guest), Billy McComb, Post a follow-up to this message

Here was the leadoff post to that thread:

I was there, along w/ about 350 magicians. People were informed up front by Rich Block That if you easy affended, not to come. We all know what can happen @ a roast. When I think of a roast I think of the Fryers Club, I dont think anyone there was prepared for what follow That Night Midway thru the Amazing Jonathan Roast.
Here in Las Vegas, The roast For the amazing Jonathan began @ 11:30 on Monday Night. small stage w about 8-10 people to Roast the Amazing Jonathan. Lance Butron Roast -no problem, Billy McComb-no problem-very funny, Mac King -all very funny,,,,,,and then Penn---
Not on stage but from the back of the room-Im sure you'll all hear about what followed. I think it was a really bad call. Many people were offended. Sorry I atttended.
