John Oliver appeared in a homemade protective suit to cut the ribbon on the new sewer plant in Danbury, Connecticut.

Danbury’s City Council voted earlier this month to rename the sewage plant “The John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant,” following a tongue-in-cheek battle that began with an expletive-filled rant against the city on HBO’s “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” in August.

Mayor Mark Boughton responded to the attack by posting a video of himself at the sewage plant saying the city was going to name it after Oliver “because it’s full of crap just like you, John.”

Oliver offered to donate $55,000 to local charities if Danbury actually followed through with the idea. He followed through on donating the money.

"Now we can get our shit sorted out," Oliver told the laughing Mayor at the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
