Pat Pineapple and Robert Anton Wilson were both admitted to the Order of the Pineapple on 18 January 1992. The award was given by by Earth Chapter 5 of the Ek-sen-triks Cluborguild.
Background[]
Pat Pineapple was the Mascot of the original Ĕk-sĕn-trĭks Cluborguild. Several years later, Pat became the Patron Saint of the Discordian Division of the Ek-sen-triks CluborGuild. It may have been Toby Bruno who named Pat; certainly it was Toby who drew the "official" image of Pat used by the original club and which appears in Ek-sen-trik-kuh Discordia: The Tales of Shamlicht. The pineapple character was likely inspired by the pineapple given to Alien in 1982. Relatively little is known about Pat other than can be determined by looking at his--or her--picture. Like the Saturday Night Live Pat, we can't be sure if Pat is male or female. How does one sex a pineapple?
