If you get a chance to scope out the venue before hand, you could even take some aluminum strap (available at hardware stores) and bend yourself some strips with a big hook on one end and a small straight flat on the other that could be slipped under a ceiling tile without having to lift the tiles up to tie a string loop over the grid.  Keeps the coax up out of the way where the foot traffic can't trip over it.
