An orchestrated political event created when a prominent political leader is removed from a float in a parade conspicuously so as to cause embarrassment for a candidate for office.
When the policeman called for a warrant to be served on a local democratic official during a parade when that official was on a float, his public handcuffing attracted enough media attention that it became known as FloatGate.
