This should be categorized as one of Hilary Clinton’s most memorable speeches ever.

The former Secretary of State mounted the stage to speak before an Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting at the Mandalay Bay resort, for a Las Vegas convention keynote speech when an individual threw a shoe towards her.

Clinton ducked the shoe and later joked about the incident to the amazement of the crowd who cheered as she regained her composure and continued her speech.

In the video, Clinton was heard saying: “Is that somebody throwing something at me? Is that part of Cirque de Soleil?” “My goodness, I didn’t know that solid waste management was so controversial, thank goodness she didn’t play softball like I did, ” she joked.

The security agents present refused to get the memo as they quickly had the shoe-thrower arrested and taken into federal custody.
