Twitter Has A Ball With Historic Oscar Flub

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway apparently took the wrong envelope — the one for best actress winner Emma Stone — onto the stage. When they realized the mistake, representatives for ballot tabulators Price Waterhouse Coopers raced onstage to stop the acceptance speech.

Then Twitter went berserk with satire.

Now somebody go get the card that said "Best Actor Casey Affleck". #Oscars pic.twitter.com/Ifqg7EqsOD
