Happy Easter: Table for 26
Text content
Jesus: "Table for 26 please" Waiter: "But there are only 13 of you" Jesus: "Yes, but we're all going to sit on the same side"
Overview
This is an Easter-themed joke meme that uses the iconic seating layout of Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper, where Jesus and all 12 of his apostles are all seated on one single side of the long dining table. The image includes a text dialogue at the top: Jesus asks a restaurant waiter for a table for 26 people. The waiter points out there are only 13 people in their group, and Jesus replies that all of them will sit on the same side of the table. The joke plays on the fact that if all 13 people sit on one side, the restaurant needs to reserve the opposite side of the table as well, leading to 26 total seats reserved, which matches the iconic layout of the original painting shown below the text.

This meme originates from Reddit as a Happy Easter post, it is a parody joke that leverages the well-known composition of Leonardo da Vinci's classic Renaissance painting The Last Supper to create a simple restaurant seating pun.
