Who lives in a pineapple, deep in the sea? That’s right, SpongeBob SquarePants. But who would have thought that this sea is in Azeroth?! In World of Warcraft: The War Within there is an Easter egg hidden for the children’s series with the yellow sponge and even his friends are there – except for one.
Someone is missing?
Reddit user samOwise explored the waters in the new areas of the add-on. In one place he was allowed to swim out particularly far and was sure to discover a secret there.
He presents what he found there in a Reddit post:

Who or what can be seen there? Firstly, there is of course the yellow sponge, which represents the protagonist of the series. His pet, the snail Gary, is also represented.
The big pineapple is, of course, SpongeBob’s home, and his best friend Patrick is also there in the form of a starfish. SpongeBob’s employer, Mr. Krabs, even has a burger in front of him – as a symbol of the Krusty Krab.
Where is the octopus? That’s right, neighbor Squidward Tentacles was probably forgotten in this Easter Egg. Reddit users, for example, also noticed RazzerX on: »You forgot Taddel.«
Where can the Easter Egg be found? To do this, you have to swim quite a distance to the northwest of Dorn Island. If you don’t want to search: Reddit user Fleymour has the coordinates ready (25/29).
According to samOwise, players can find the Easter Egg just look atinteraction with any of the objects is not provided.
