Joe Exotic: The Tiger King was born for memes and here are the best

Everyone has too much free time on their hands thanks to the pandemic going outside in the real world. So why not dive into something even crazier: the living breathing personification of all those Florida man articles?

Joe Exotic, real name Joseph Maldonado-Passage, was a man who on the outside, looked like he had a real passion for exotic animals. But on the inside, the man was twisted, attention-seeking, and harboring abusive tendencies towards humans and animals.

The Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness is Netflix’s latest true crime docuseries the Internet is obsessed with, and with good reason. Joe Exotic is just a walking meme. A gay polygamist, known for a zoo full of tigers and exotic animals, arrested for the attempted murder of a rival? Sounds like meme material.
