For reasons that remain mysterious, Panic! At the Disco fans are finding potatoes in their mailboxes. Yes, as in the tuber.

There’s nothing like a vegetable mystery to get the Intertubes twerking in anticipation.

Fans of Panic! At the Disco in Canada, the US, the UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Australia and New Zealand report that they’ve been receiving potatoes in the mail. Yes, potatoes.  And not just any run-of-the-mill tuber, either. It’s a large baking potato with the image of P!atD’s Brendon Urie on it.

Then there was this spud.

Some people are rather freaked out.

This evidently has something to do with the band’s new single, “Say Amen (Saturday Night)” that features Brendon stabbing some dude in the face through a potato.
