Oliver gave a little speech, saying: "There is a reason this sewer plant means so much to me and that's that It represents everything that we need the most right now because think about it. This place takes the worst that humanity can produce and transforms it into something that we can live with. And now more than ever, there's something inspirational in that. Because at the end of this awful, awful year, what could be more important than evidence that if we want to, we can come together, overcome our differences and sort our shit out? Mr. Mayor, I could not be more proud to have my name on your shit sorter."

It was glorious.. Congratulations to Mr. John Oliver. #DanburyPride
Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton said previously "We are going to rename it the John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant," Boughton said. "Why? Because it's full of crap just like you, John."
And John probably thought "Damn, I actually want this"

Holy shit he actually did it, and in the best possible way too. Danbury got thousands of dollars in donations to local charities for this :)
