A huge swarm of bees surrounded people at the Muslim Community Mosque in Phoenix, Arizona, in a terrifying moment caught on video.

At least 20 people were stung Friday, Phoenix Fire Department spokeswoman Ardell Deliz told ABC News.

One person -- a 24-year-old man -- was transported to the hospital in stable condition, Deliz said.

Firefighters rushed to the scene and sprayed the area with a foam that calms the insects, but Deliz said it took at least a few hours until a bee keeper could come remove them.

The Muslim Community Mosque did not immediately respond to a request for comment....

Bees? Are you sure they weren't MOSQUE-eetos?

[SunkenCiv]

I won’t pun about this, and you can’t mecca me.

Oh no!

Hive gone and done it!

It is harder than a pilgrimage to mecca judgment call on puns so awesome.

Seems waspish of me to not award the beeth of you the Internet for the day. Sharia and share alike.

"To Bee or Not to Bee?"

Didn't think I'd ever see the day when this poem might bee appropriate ...

Grounded!

Bernice was just a worker bee,
But she did love her work.
She loved to smell the flowers,
And never did she shirk.

She found a good patch one fine day,
Began to gather nectar,
She filled up all her pockets,
And noted well the vector.

She'd need to pass the word along,
She'd do the "waggle-dance",
But she was really weighted down.
She might not get the chance!

With all the weight she carried,
She glided to the ground.
She couldn’t fly another inch,
She'd have to walk around.

She trudged all through the morning,
Quite sure that she would swoon.
She trekked onward valiantly,
Til it was half past Noon.

With her forepaws held around her mouth,
As if they were a cup,
She shouted "Help!" to those above,
"I've pollen, and I can't get up!"
