For those of us who don't know why this pole is famous, can you clue us in?

There's an artful middle finger in New Hampshire that's now an "ART" installation so the local town who didn't let the man open a business there, can't remove it.

People can’t stop hitting it with their cars. they’ve added a flashing stop sign and jersey barriers and at one point tried to remove it with an excavator, but it keeps on totaling cars. I thought it was just a meme on this subreddit but i guess it’s become a real local icon. kind of endearing really.

does anyone have a compilation album of the cars it’s claimed?

I’ve seen other signs completely demolished by what I assume are the oversized lifted trucks.

Just like, a whole KFC “Enter” sign just gone. Barely even a nub where the pole was.

Fire hydrants, medians, sidewalks, pedestrians. Nothing is spared.
