* The ''FamilyGuy'' episode "I Am Peter, Hear Me Roar" [[hottip:*:The episode where Peter goes to a women's retreat after getting in trouble for telling sexist jokes to a woman at work and becoming so in touch with his feminine side that he doesn't know what it's like to be masculine anymore]] had Cleveland take Peter to The Million Man March, as Cleveland believes that being a man means learning respect and love for his own gender. Peter (who has been warped by feminism) believes that if men were more caring to women, society would be a better place and decides to get on the mike and let it be known. However, because Peter is a white guy angrily accusing all the men in the audience for causing society's ills and the fact that the audience consists of militant black men, this leads to this trope and MistakenForRacist in the form of an overhead shot of Peter getting chased by everyone at the Million Man March.

Compare ChasedByAngryNatives, while this trope is usually with named characters. Also compare TorchesAndPitchforks, which may very well overlap with this.

* This happens in Left4Dead if a Boomer vomits on you. Assuming, of course, you've got enough room to run and don't get immediately surrounded by the horde.

* In ''{{Webcomic/Greg}}'', Ted streaks across a college campus naked, as everyone chases him for disguising himself as a phony professor [[http://gregcomic.com/2011/09/14/storyline-back-to-campus-part-3/ here]].

"Guess Who's Coming to Criticize Dinner" when all the restaurateurs and chefs of Springfield chase after Homer after Lisa saves him from eating a dangerous eclair, "Saddlesore Galactica" where jockey-sized trolls chase after Homer after Homer breaks his promise to throw the horse race so they can win, and "Missionary Impossible" where PBS characters chase after Homer after he tricks them into thinking he's pledging $10,000 to the network).

* After his brain was warped by feminism, [[FamilyGuy Peter's]] friend Cleveland took him to a Million Man March to snap him out of it. Peter defiantly approached a microphone and spoke a few "truths" to the men, about how the ills of the country were their fault because they were '''men''', not because they were all '''black''' men. Cue bird's-eye-view of tiny white dot chased by a whole lot of black dots.

* At the end of Discworld/{{Jingo}}, [[DaChief Commander Vimes]] was leading a procession and spotted an unliscensed thief stealing a lady's bag. He immediately gave chase while still leading the procession, which caused the people behind him to follow his lead since they didn't really know if this was how things were supposed to go, which caused the people behind them to run after them since they don't know what's happening at the front and they're getting left behind, which caused everyone watching to run after them too because, well, everyone else was doing it. While all of this was happening, the poor thief continued to run as fast as he could because he had taken one look over his shoulder and found the whole of Ankh-Morpork society bearing down on him.
