I did something along these lines to a group when they were stuck in the CCZ
(it was a dream sequence though. giving them a quick look into the future of
the campaign). It was only 20 years into the future and was provoked by a
powerful Free Spirit that had been talking to the groups Munchie (who never
realized anything about his incredibly powerful Focus or why this little grey-
haired guy always seemed to show up. even in the CCZ, but i digress...ever
read 'Bottled Demon'? ;] )
While going throught the initial scenes of finding their old contacts (one
went from a ganger to an Armani suit wearing Mafia don, another was teaching
Magic Theory at Seattle U.) their jaws truly did DROP.
It was the longest that any of them had remained quiet ;]
I advise a scenario like this, if only for the GM Amusement Factor ;]
