The vice-presidential debate had a winner or not, but turned an insect into internet sensation.
Twitter can be a great source for vital information and sometimes it can be a place to find rib-cracking jokes. The crucial VP debate between Mike Pence and Kamala Harris turned into a meme-fest when the eagle-eyed viewers were quick to notice a fly on Pence's head for two long minutes - all during the debate.
Twitter did what it does best. The fly turned into an internet sensation, all thanks to hundreds and thousands of users tweeting about the audacious insect. The word "flies" has been tweeted and retweeted close to 500,000 times and even started a hashtag #flygate.
The Flygate might not be as big as Celebgate, or Watergate, but it is big enough to grab people's attention. And naturally, Joe Biden's Democratic party joined the fun and didn't let this opportunity slide. They registered the "flywillvote.com" domain and Biden has even took the time to snap a picture holding a fly swatter to get the feel of the whole situation. The tweet has been liked more than 700,000 times.
