Viral Chicago Flyer Calls for Volunteers to Push the Bean Seven Inches Left

A tongue-in-cheek Chicago event listing is calling for volunteers to push the Bean seven inches to the left, turning the city's well-known sculpture into the subject of a viral joke.

The Partiful page is titled "pushing the bean 7 inches to the left" and lists Sunday, November 8, at the Bean on East Randolph Street. Its description claims that moving the sculpture would reveal a door for a man supposedly trapped inside.

Those claims are part of the listing's absurd premise, not a verified rescue operation or an official plan to move the sculpture.

The event page does not establish that city officials or the sculpture's operators have authorized any move. The story is about the circulating flyer and event listing, not an actual relocation of the Bean.

(This is satire, not an official plan to move the Bean.)
