You see, that's where I would have gone wrong

I would have used a pear and Gorilla tape: "Banana Duct-Taped to Wall Selling for $120K at Florida Art Gallery".

Things I learn at Pacos. Got to get me some Gorilla tape, may never have to get the roof repaired ever again.

They say the stuff is strong.

With respect to the artistic banana, don't you just know that the produce manager down at the local Food Lion is kicking himself for not thinking of this scam first?

Gorilla tape does not like prolonged exposure to sunlight (the adhesive dries up). The "As Seen On TV" Flex Tape works much better, but is an absolute pain in the ass to work with: it likes to stick to itself and no amount of effort will ever "unstick" it when that happens. I manage to make it work for the project I was doing, but I wasted far more tape than I actually used.

Yeah like with duct tape, I guess it's a trade off - more stick less ease of use. I can live with that.

Yes why build businesses when you can just stick food to walls for money?

Buckets of money, what?

I think the concept of 'supply & demand' would play a big roll in that business idea. Supply would be easy, but demand might be a problem.

I could see paying a lot of money for something like the Mona Lisa, because there's absolutely no way I could reproduce it with my own talent. But a banana duct taped to the wall?

I think I could do that blindfolded.

My conspiratorial mind immediately saw a scheme to launder drug money. The gallery owner should be investigated.

Either that, or it was the drug-addled scion of some millionaire who decided to blow 120K on a banana taped to a wall in order to show everybody how cool and ironic he is, and to stick it to his old man.
