Villagers would have a BBQ at the Plaza? What?

[Underneath The Stars]

is this true and why haven’t i encountered this?

 

[Manon_Despoina]

Probably chance! I have seen photos of it but haven't encountered or in game either.

Oh, I saw this not long ago! Goose and Curlos were having barbecue last Sunday morning. I felt a little bad because I ended up kicking Curlos out via Amiibo villager, and then Goose was barbecuing all by himself because Curlos was suddenly, mysteriously in boxes.

It's pretty great. I've seen it twice so far this month. Fang's been involved both times. My man likes to cha-chomp on some veggie kebabs

 

[Fye]

this is so cute I haven't seen it yet but that's probably cause I only really play at night

 

[saucySheep]

Never EVER seen my villagers do this. Pretty angry about it too lmfao

So why can't we interact and carry around a shiskabob to? Leaves a bad taste in my mouth that we can only observe from a looking glass and feel like we're not actually part of the island experience.

i've seen this happen! its very cute. i wish we as players could interact with it too tho

I’ve seen my villagers hanging around a barbecue on my plaza a couple times; was disappointed that I couldn’t interact with it and take out a shish kebob and eat (or at the very least, pretend to be be ready to eat something like in HHD). Also, I’m not sure what to think of Dom being among of the villagers I see eating from the barbecue.

Is this a summer thing or fall thing?

 

[DaisyFan]

I have not seen it yet, but I may encounter it soon.

 

[Hilbunny]

Aw I love when all the animals hang out, way too cute.

 

[Khaelis]

I had it a couple days ago. Beau wouldn't leave its side all day. Pretty sure I saw him there at 10PM still eating off it.

I love that so much! Such a neat feature to add to the plaza! I wish they would do more things like that too!

 

[CrankyCupcake]

I encountered the barbecue the other day with Rolf, Dom and Raymond. It looked interesting, but they didn't interact with one another or made funny faces so it wasn't as fun to see as villagers zooming around or singing at the plaza.

It reminded me of the barbecue event in Tomodachi Life, which was actually hilarious because as the barbecue (in TomoLife) progressed, the mii faces got darker and darker with soot, even as they kept talking about the barbecue and traded anecdotes. If only that also happened in NH!

 

[Pyoopi]

Yeah they do. I saw it a lot in the fall. Tbh, I enjoyed their winter activity more since it's a bit awkward but cute, lol.

Spoiler: winter activity

Seems grilling should be more of a summer thing.

Seems grilling should be more of a summer thing.

I think of tailgating, which fits with fall for American football season

I also saw them playing with fireworks in the plaza too! It was a sight to behold.
