I don't know how technology advanced Stitch is, but in a newer era where AAs can make remarkable movements that is when accidents (and they do happen) can make potential big messes. Think for a moment, one line bursts, but the rest of Stitch is still functioning ... making bodily sweeps in whatever direction he is programmed. Now, I don't believe this AA was capable to make full 360 sweeps getting EVERYONE wet .... but it seems plausable that up to 1/3rd of the rounded theater was sprayed.

While a crazy rumor, it certainly isn't unprecedented.
