Megabloom but not??

Glen Allen, VA

Has anyone seen a tomato megabloom that really isn’t before? I’ve googled to the best I can find, but I only see posts of tomatoes that are multiple pedicels/flowers, rather than a single bloom with what seems like three stigma. It’s an Amish paste variety, and fruits are only about the size of golf balls right now. The plant and other cluster flowers are growing normally. This just seems unusual to me.

I'm not sure what "really isn't before" means. Conjoined tomatoes are said to be "fascinating". I have a couple of large slicers, specifically Mortgage Lifter and Black Krim, with conjoined flowers so expect to see "fascination" with the fruit. One flower will look like a sunflower on a single stem, with lots of petals, and the others will be several flowers per stem and typical. I've chalked it up to weird weather but there are numerous causes. With approximately thirty plants, there are one or two fruits like this every year.
