My Entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #949

In The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #949 from the issue of June 23, 2025, four people in business attire stand on a surfboard riding a wave. The man standing in front, possibly the boss, is speaking. My entry appears below. The drawing is by Christopher Weyant.

"Cowabunga! Pass it down."




These captions didn't catch any waves:

"Take a memo:  Cowabunga!"
"Who's the most innovative department now?"
"Who knows the theme to Hawaii 5-0?"
"Wait, who's photographing this?"
"I give you the cover of next year's annual report."
"I need to let one of you go."
