The Ed Sullivan Show
When Jackie Mason was signaled from off stage with a hand gesture indicating he had one minute, he speeds up his act, but apparently not enough to suit the stage director. So Jackie closes up his story, and in frustration,returns the gesture, saying "Here's a finger for you, and one for you...." as he spins and shows his back to the audience and Ed, who was downstage right. Although it was the "One" signal with an extended forefinger, Ed misinterpreted it as the notorious middle finger salute, and banned Jackie from the show.
