A massive crowd assembled at Bryant Park in NYC, each person bringing along their own bananas for a popular event.
On Sunday, June 9, Bryant Park in New York City was filled with enthusiastic individuals and an abundance of bananas.
At the inaugural ‘bring your own banana’ gathering, organized by a collective known as the ‘League of Legends,’ attendees brought their own fruit to share with fellow participants.
If they weren’t consuming a banana, they would have some type of fruit, such as one individual who generously shared their halved watermelon with another guest.
The group did not explicitly mention the reason for the event, but according to a viral post by one of the participants, the banana-eating gathering was described as a way for nature to heal itself.
At the event, a newlywed couple indulged in banana delight while dressed in their wedding attire. A dog also joined in on the fun, enjoying a delicious yellow snack.
Another attendee shared that New York is often associated with “violence”, but in reality, people there enjoy relaxing and eating fruit.
The man who is known for his cheese ball antics at the April 27th event in Union Square Park was also present. He was once again indulging in his love for cheese balls, but this time from a massive jar instead of a banana.
“I’ll consume this banana in tribute to the world,”another attendee exclaimed as they perched on a chair in the center of the park.
Another woman, upon hearing about the humorous gathering, decided to join in and shared her experience on TikTok, describing how awesome her Sunday turned out to be.

Upon arriving at the location, she and her friend joined a line of people and were met with a loud chorus of “banana, banana, banana”from the crowd. Some even raised their bananas in the air, reminiscent of lighters at a concert.
After viewing her viral post, many agreed that the ‘bring your own banana’ event embodied the essence of New York. One person even expressed their FOMO (fear of missing out) at not having seen the flier for the gathering.
With such large crowds gathering for the celebration of bananas and cheese balls, it is impossible to predict what the next spontaneous food festivity in NYC will be.
