NYPD Sting Captures Huge Swarm Of Bees In Times Square

There’s nothing worse than Times Square.

Update: There’s nothing worse than Times Square when it’s 1,000 degrees out.

Update: There’s nothing worse than Times Square when it’s 1,000 degrees out & there’s a massive swarm of bees.

I’m not a scientist or an expert on these winged warriors but I do know two things: 1) They fucking love hotdogs & 2) they’re attracted to the bright colors of aggressive men & women in bootleg costumes…

…So Times Square is kind of a no-brainer for them. This swarm appears to be visiting from a hive in Terra Haute, OH. If you zoom in you can see tiny fanny packs, cameras & shopping bags from MnM World. Apparently next they’ll be flying down to the subway where they plan on looking needlessly frightened before blocking a train door at rush hour.

Upon looking into it I learned that a healthy honey bee colony may have more than 80,000 worker bees in the summertime. At $8 per hotdog that’s about $64K they’re missing out on by sucking ‘em into that vacuum bucket. Which, speaking of is being done by a man in an official NYPD beekeeper suit. Who knew?
