Food, Italy, Living in Sicily, Photo galleries, Sicily, Travel Francu, King of the Watermelons Posted by VDG on February 3, 2015February 7, 2015 A watermelon stall in Bagheria. That yellow sign, written hilariously in Sicilian, says: “Only one person in Bagheria sells watermelons which are red and sweet. They call him Francu, King of the watermelons.” Advertisement Share this:Click to print (Opens in new window)Click to email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Like this:Like Loading...

Love those little stands he has in front for displaying the melons. Perhaps they are part of the royal furniture. 🙂

LOL! I think they are his crowns, being put to good use whilst he’s not wearing them!
