Man Goes Bananas Over Lack Of Bananas, Breaks Register: Millburn Cops

MILLBURN, NJ — An angry diner went bananas in a Millburn eatery last week because his poke bowl didn't have enough bananas, officials say.

The disappointed banana fan broke the cash register at Playa Bowls on Millburn Avenue near Main Street just before 5:30 p.m. last Thursday, Millburn police said.

The East Orange man, 38, had come to pick up an online order, only to find it did not meet his banana needs, officials said.

"He was unhappy with his order," police said,"due to it not having enough bananas."

An employee tried to explain the refund process, but this did not soothe the banana fan, said officials.

"The customer became irate," police said. "[He] picked up the store's cash register and slammed it to the ground."

The man then left the store, but was later charged with criminal mischief, police said.
