    POSTED

    Reading and Leeds festival in the UK have updated their banned items list to include pineapples because they feared that too many people were going to bring them.

    In case you haven't noticed, pineapples are kind of Glass Animals thang. They included them in a lyric in Pork Soda and fans have started bringing them to gigs to gift to the band.

    That's got the festival a lil' worried because apparently pineapples are a pointy hazard.

    "Organisers were a little concerned about hundreds of pineapples turning up on site so decided to ask fans not to bring them along," a spokesperson told the BBC.

    They did concede, however, "the tongue may be slightly in cheek on this one."

    Drummer Joe Seaward reckons the whole ordeal is "fruitist" though and has challenged even more people to bring them. 

    "Anyone who wasn't bringing a pineapple definitely is now," he said.

    "It's fruitist. Watermelons are fine, but not pineapples?"

    Agreed. #JusticeForThePineapple.
