Pushing film

Let's see if we can get things going again. Here's a technical question to work on.

Aside from the logical reason to push film beyond its ASA rating (i.e. you're in the middle of a shoot with 100 ASA and the light drops so you shoot the roll at 400), why else would you push film.

Is there a contrast difference? saturation? other effect? I've read about pushing film, but never had the reason to do it, so I was curious and figured this might jump start the board.
Looking forward to the opinions.
Randy
