Yes, to commemorate when he invented the "slipping on a banana peel" gag. In Coriolanus, if I recall correctly.
@shakespeare.lol is this true?
I thought he had a Banana Bandana.
Forsooth. That was rumored to prevent the plague, along with stump water and a dead cat. But you always have to chant the proper incantation.
Noooo… Really??
That happened when an irate theatre critic threw a banana so hard it imbedded in Will's neck, leaving a yellowish banana-shaped mark. Later in life Shakespeare said it was a birthmark and wrote an (unpublished) play about it.
He also had a pineapple tattooed on his left buttock ( don't ask me how I know , but let's just say" is this a dagger which i see before me" is written about someone fabulous)
He became a lifelong member of the Nanner Gang. They were surprisingly violent miscreants that usually mugged the wealthiest patrons of the Globe.
It was actually a dildo so he could shake his speare.
And a rooster on his pecker...
+ a W on each butt cheek?
Is that a banana tattoo under that codpiece on your neck, or are you happy to see me?
