I'm thinking about that time Dave Matthews' tour bus dumped ~800 pounds of human waste from a bridge in Chicago onto an open top sightseeing boat passing below on the Chicago River. (en.wikipedia.org)

The liquid waste was brownish yellow in color, and had a foul, offensive odor. The liquid human waste went into passengers' eyes, mouths, hair, and onto clothing and personal belongings, many of which were soaked. Some of the passengers suffered nausea and vomiting as a result of exposure to the human waste.

On August 8, 2023, the Riot Fest Historical Society attached a plaque to the Kinzie Street Bridge commemorating the 19th anniversary of the incident.

I appreciate that only some of them experienced nausea and vomiting after 800lbs of sewage was dumped into their eyes and mouths. Apart from those crybabies, the rest of them were totally chill and it was whatever.
