2016 Doodle Fruit Games Day 10 and Brazilian Father's Day
This Doodle’s Key Themes
Today marks the 10th day of the 2016 Doodle Fruit Games! We’re journeying to an otherwise unassuming fruit stand in Rio where produce from all over the market competes for the title of freshest fruit. To play along, get the latest Google app on Android or iOS, and tap the Doodle. Learn more at g.co/fruit and let the games begin!
And now, a report from the field covering the scene on Day 10...
The athletes have hit a fruitful stride on Day 10 of the competition, but on this Father’s Day in Brazil, we’re kicking it over to the familial forces who hold it all together behind-the-stands. Bunches upon bunches of friend pods, budding seedlings and even entire family trees excitedly gather to root for their loved ones in the limelight. Fig, fig, hooray! Watermelon’s little sprouts do the wave while Coconut’s cousins go totally…nuts.
“I wouldn’t be here without my Dad,” waxes a choked-up Coconut, “He’s the wind beneath my leaves. Happy Father's Day, Dad!”
Keep coming back for more from the 2016 Doodle Fruit Games!
