Want to impress the press with a large crowd of screaming fans? How about having a big crowd for a video shoot? Maybe you want to impress a club owner with a big turnout?

All the above scenarios are possible (if you have the money) by using a company called **[Crowds On Demand](http://crowdsondemand.com/?ref=hypebot.com)**.Hiring a fake crowd may seem like cheating on some level, but it's actually been done for years. Going back as far as **Elvis** and **The Beatles,** management inserted ringers into every television audience to make the reaction larger than life. Yes, it worked very well indeed.
