Erwin Wurm just received a parking ticket in the city of Karlsruhe. Nothing to write home about, except for the fact that the offending object was one of his artworks. Austrian artist Erwin Wurm has become famous for bending, inflating and twisting cars, trucks and camper-vans in the name of art.
What's the old joke?

I think the traffic warden who issued that ticket is just showing a sense of humor there.

Here's hoping this might inspire another music video, RHCP (previously) or otherwise.
