And the award for the best murder weapon goes to... The perfect weapon is often hidden in plain sight... So what's better to bludgeon someone with than a heavy trophy or plaque? It's almost too absurd to be a trope, but that doesn't stop it from happening. The trope is when someone murders or injures someone with an award. Occasionally, the award may be used to damage something inanimate. The award is usually a plaque or a sports trophy, which makes sense considering how sharp those things can be. It can be Played for Laughs but sometimes it's straight-up macabre. You can see this trope the most in Police Procedural shows, because of the violently disturbing imagery. The use of an everyday object especially juxtaposes with what we consider dangerous. The significance behind using a trophy as a weapon is usually contextual to the scene. But in general, a trophy is a symbol of success. It's a physical manifestation of the character's hard work, especially if they're talented, so that makes it even more ironic when their own trophy kills them. Often, a Trophy Room will accompany the scene, making The Resenter even more Driven by Envy. I mean, what's more intimidating than a wall covered in gold trophies? Hence, characters who use the trophy as a weapon could be subconsciously jealous of the victim's success. In some cases, someone uses their own trophy as a weapon, which could symbolise that their success has corrupted them. They could be a Jerk With A Heart Of Jerk or an Academic Alpha Bitch who lost their way, and now, they're using their own trophies to hurt others in Dramatic Irony. Seems a little too on the nose, right? For extra bonus irony, this may happen to someone who believes Losing Is Worse Than Death. Not unexpectedly, the plaque or trophy usually breaks in the process, which could symbolise the victim's just desserts if they abused their power in the past. If it's their own trophy, it may reflect their willingness to sabotage their own success by hurting others. Contrasting these darker examples, it can serve as a Visual Gag, especially if it's accidental. Although the trope implies the trophy is used as a weapon, in some cases it can hurt a character unintentionally. For instance, a heavy trophy could fall off the shelf in a Trophy Room and hit someone on the head (again embodying an ironic fate). Someone might also trip and fall on a trophy, becoming Impaled with Extreme Prejudice. Compare Instrument of Murder, Edible Bludgeon, Improvised Weapon. Not to be confused with a Creepy Souvenir, the trophies that serial killers take from their victims, or video game achievement trophies that come in the form of weapons. Also no relation to Death by Newbery Medal. |

Spider-Man 2099: An ex-girlfriend of Miguel invented a means of implanting orders into a person's mind through the optic nerve. Her partner beat her to death with her own trophy (which was shaped like the Statue of Liberty) so he could steal the data and sell it to the highest bidder, but not before she sent a message to Miguel with her device that ordered him to kill her partner. Miguel narrowly manages to resist the order, but nearly does so anyway when he sees the body of his ex and the bloody trophy next to her. | |

Ellery Queen: In "The Adventure of the Blunt Instrument", Edgar Manning, a mystery writer, wins the annual Blunt Instrument Award for his year's work and goes to pick it up at a party. Ellery, who was Edgar's rival for the award, is sidelined because of a nasty cold. So Edgar gleefully phones Ellery and gives a blow-by-blow description of the award ceremony (including describing the trophy) as he leans back in his easy chair. But the phone call is interrupted by a sickening thud. Ellery calls out to Edgar but gets no response. Cut back to Edgar, who's now face down on his desk. His skull was shattered by ... The Blunt Instrument, the trophy itself. | |

Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Subverted. Jake claims that a murder suspect did this in a fit of rage towards his colleague, which is why the trophy in question doesn't appear in the crime scene photo. However, this was just a ruse to trick the culprit into confessing to the crime. Jake later admits that the trophy wasn't at the scene because a cleaning lady dropped it, and it was never used in the murder. | |

The Order of the Stick: This is the incident that starts the entire story. Pre-Lich Xykon, in the course of burgling the mage Fyron Pucebuckle, beats him to death with his own Wizzy award, resulting in Fyron's student Eugene Greenhilt swearing an oath of vengeance against Xykon. Since Eugene died without fulfilling the oath, it fell to his son Roy Greenhilt hunt down Xykon. It is especially meaningful because Xykon has been on the receiving end of some setting-wide Sorcerer discrimination from the very start, being treated as effectively a mentally challenged savant compared to Wizards (Wizards scale their power off of Intelligence and learn magic through devoted study while Sorcerers run on Charisma and are effectively born with theirs without having to earn the power). While Xykon IS frequently impatient and doesn't hold much regard for higher-learning (and snobby uppity mages looking down on perceived inferiors), he is NOT stupid and works with the tools he has available to him. Post-Lich Xykon expresses the belief that power is power regardless of its source, which certainly extends to his victory over Fryon through a brutal and crude bludgeoning once it was clear he couldn't win in a straight magic clash. That the weapon was Fryon's trophy celebrating mastery of magic just added insult to injury. | |

Tomorrow Town: The events of the story are kicked off by Varno Zhoule, former science fiction author and present founder of the titular proposed futurist town, being bludgeoned to death in his home with one of his own Hugo Awards. As Richard Jeperson eventually figures out, Zhoule was in fact killed by his deputy and the Town's other founder George Gewell who hit him around the head with his own Hugo Award out of frustration at his incompetence and impractical ideas. Then afterwards Gewell moved the body and stole one of Zhoule's Hugos to divert suspicion from him. Jeperson admits to being disappointed at the use of an improvised bludgeon rather than a science fiction Death Ray. | |

After Spencer believes this is a continuation of the blackmail and kills Spencer, he realizes it was all a trick when he sees Gavin still alive. The last shot is of the National Television Award trophy, implying that Spencer will use that to kill Gavin for real, and then he's on the phone to his agent joking about abandoning fans' bodies in the river. | |

Team Fortress 2: The Saxxy is a statue of Saxton Hale wieldable by every class that is given to the winners of The Saxxy Awards. Victims are frozen into an Australlium statue. "Meet the Sniper" also provides a decent quote. |

Veronica Mars: Invoked and subverted. In Season 2, it's suggested by Veronica that Aaron killed Lilly with his Oscar statuette, which he claims that Lilly stole from him. This inspires Aaron to hire Kendall to place the statue, with blood and hair, in Duncan's room, implicating him in Lilly's murder. In actual fact, after he gets found not guilty, Aaron confesses that the Oscar statue was a Red Herring all along — he killed Lilly with an ashtray. | |

Malignant: Gabriel, seeking revenge against the scientists who wronged him, goes after Dr. Florence Weaver in her home. He grabs her award for excellence in surgery. It resembles an upside-down caduceus, and he holds the two wings on the side of the trophy like a crossguard. Gabriel proceeds to violently murder Dr. Weaver, then returns to his secret hide-out in Madison's attic and sharpens it on a grindstone. He also uses it to murder Dr. Fields. | |

One of the many infamous moments in the history of the Chilean Festival de Viña occurred in 2000, when Enrique Iglesias, after receiving the Gaviota de Plata (or Silver Seagull trophy), decided to share the award with his fans in a rush of emotion... by throwing it to the audience. Two fans were injured, though one of them was brought onstage and was happy enough to be next to Iglesias (she also received two signed album copies). | |
