Tom noticed a pineapple on top of the Wimbledon mens trophy. Is this a secret signal?

Yes but it's so secret that nobody knows what it signifies

This was actually all over the news. At least in The Economist Times.

According to them, serving pineapples were a symbol of high status and since tennis is a rather lavish sport, pineapple probably ended up becoming an ardent part of Wimbledon.

The secret is out! It’s all over Wimbledon’s website.

I know a thing or two about bridges, and I’m certain those are stone pinecones on that bridge.

There is two theories I think then.

The one I know of is John Tradescant who was a gentleman of Lambeth who is supposedly the person who brought pineapple to the UK.

Only know this as I lived on the adjoining road to Tradescant Road in Lambeth.
