About
The SpongeBob Movie Goofy Goober Guitar Mandela Effect or SpongeBob Movie White V Guitar / Peanut Guitar Mandela Effect refers to a Mandela effect where users believe SpongeBob SquarePants plays a white or purple v-shaped guitar or, by some accounts, a star-shaped or double guitar during the "Goofy Goober Rock" scene at the end of The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie when in reality, he plays a peanut-shaped guitar. The effect was noted online as early as 2019 and went viral on TikTok in late 2022.
Origin
On November 19th, 2004, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie was released in theaters. At the end of the movie, SpongeBob plays guitar during a rock performance of "Goofy Goober Rock." The earliest known upload of the clip to YouTube,[1] posted on November 16th, 2008, shows SpongeBob playing a peanut-shaped guitar (shown below).
On August 1st, 2019, Redditor EDOARDOMASTER made a post to /r/MandelaEffect[2] claiming that he and many others remember SpongeBob playing a v-shaped guitar rather than a peanut-shaped guitar. The user also shared an Imgur[3] screenshot of a Spanish Facebook post making the same claim. The Reddit post gained over 480 upvotes and 200 comments, many agreeing that they don't remember the guitar being peanut-shaped.
One comment[4] under the post links to a clip from the episode "Band Geeks" (shown below) where Sandy Cheeks plays a purple v-shaped guitar during the performance, believing people are confusing the two scenes.
