Why Can't This Happen To Me?

Ok, some wise guy taped a banana to a white piece of poster board with duct tape.

It sold at Sotheby's auction yesterday for 6.24 million dollars!

I could have done that! I could've been a contender..........
 
I'm convinced those ridiculous art pieces that go for millions are just some sort of tax evasion/money laundering trick that the wealthy use. I was an graphic design/art major, and we had to visit the Museum of Modern Art in LA. I couldn't believe some of the pieces that they called 'art'. There was one presentation of a looping video that had a guy wearing super long pointy shoes walking down the street. He would kick someone in the butt right between the cheeks, and it started over again. 🙄
 
You can slip away to watch the auctioning of that banana here: Duct-taped banana artwork auctioned for $6.2m in New York

I have so many questions......................

First of all, the people bidding on the duct taped banana all seem so normal. What is wrong with them?

Secondly, how long is the banana good for? Do you have to get a fresh one every two to three days?

When you do, what do you do with the old banana? Make banana pudding?

What is the message? What is the artist trying to convey?
