ok so there is a Philly guy who has been eating a rotisserie chicken every day and today is day 40 when he invited people to watch him eat the 40th chicken on this abandoned pier via flyers all over and I honestly think 100s of people might show up
he's eating his 40th chicken in 18 minutes
stole these pics, 1st is chicken man and 2nd is chicken man's point of view as he consumes his bird
Philly chicken man is @/AlexiconTom on twitter btw
he finished the chicken and everyone cheered. also from the posts I'm seeing it appears everyone got shit faced while watching him. classic.
@swirlz who is the perimeter there to protect, the artist or the audience?
@swirlz so is this "performance art" or?? Just a lonely white dude???
@ItsJenNotGabby I think it falls more in "bored dude who committed to the bit and has made himself miserable" but I have no real clue lmao
@swirlz @ItsJenNotGabby he certainly doesn't look particularly enthused in that photo. Haven't seen anyone rend a chicken asunder that unhappily since Denethor in Return of the King
@swirlz @ItsJenNotGabby I don't know how to react to any part of this... performance art!
@ItsJenNotGabby @swirlz I think those are not mutually exclusive, and it doesn't depend on his intention. As soon as he started planning to do it with an audience it became performance art
@swirlz wonder if any of those are, like, groupies.
