Our entry: January 2020

My first thought was “Toastmasters” but then I looked at it again and realized that guy was probably a maitre d’. So, we decided it was a restaurant and that’s when this caption came to us. I was going to write “restaurant” but SJ insisted on “establishment.” She’s right, it’s funnier.

A few days after I texted my friend Jenny our first-effort entry, she sent me this with the note, “Okay, so this just popped up on Twitter… not gonna lie, I think it’s also a solid contender.”

Really think this is the year that I’m finally gonna win the New Yorker caption contest pic.twitter.com/0UAIfeLV2q

When the actual winner is decided, I’ll post it here. Stay tuned!

Update 2/5/2020: It’s down to the final three which readers will now vote on. Notice that last one… it’s pretty similar to ours, don’t you think!?
