Tony Rock, Standing Up To His Name

A man just threw a drumstick at comedian Tony Rock.

Which seems an appropriate projectile as Rock was just joking about black stereotypes, arguing that the one about loving chicken is actually true and that he wants a leg now. Still, this is awkward. As the drumstick rolls across the stage, the audience freezes. Nobody breathes. Managers rush forward. And everyone turns to the white man who tossed it.

(Perhaps this is why comedians don't tell jokes about tomatoes?)

Rock -- the younger brother of mega-comedian Chris Rock -- just smiles and tries to regain the DC Improv crowd's attention. Even Barack Obama, he says, if confronted with flung chicken, would bark, "Which [racial slur] threw this at me?"
