Watched this last night on an old episode of Last Week Tonight and I think it's HILARIOUS there is a Wikipedia page named "Waitangi dildo incident"!
I don't think I've laughed so hard since I saw a live taping of The Daily Show!
The Waitangi dildo incident occurred on 5 February 2016 in Waitangi, New Zealand, when a protester flung a rubber dildo at MP Steven Joyce, striking him in the face. The incident became international news, and was quoted and parodied in art, music, and television comedy.

And oh yes, there's a picture!
