24 memes from Netflix’s Tiger King that prove how crazy it is
26 March 2020, 14:57
Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness is Netflix's latest hit true-crime documentary which follows the stories of Joe Exotic and Carole Baskin, two rival tiger owners in the US, who go to great lengths to tear each other down.
Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness is the best true-crime documentary on Netflix right now. There, we said it.
And if like us you've been hooked on the lives of Joe Exotic, Carole Baskin, and the poor girl that got her arm ripped off by a tiger, you will probably have become obsessed with the memes from the show too.

If you haven't yet had a chance to sit down and watch it, the seven-part docuseries follows a bunch of redneck tiger owners (they keep 1,200 tigers in their backyard to be precise), as the zoo quickly becomes involved in a drug ring, an online reality show, and...well, a murder-for-hire charge.
Joe Exotic, also know as Joseph Maldonado-Passage, is the man behind the sequin shirt, and despite his outlandish ways, everyone on the internet has fallen somewhat in love with him.
Despite being the "enemy" of the show, the documentary delves deep into his love of animals, his dedication to his three husbands, and a conspiracy theory that the 'Big Cat Rescue' hero Carole, may have just murdered her millionaire husband.

Watching #TigerKing and somehow the woman who wants to be a yoga animal trainer is by far the most normal person. Barbara, I hope you’re living your best life right now. pic.twitter.com/cMP3eUsjm2

Me explaining #TigerKing to my mom:
— Pete Stegemeyer (@itspeterj) March 25, 2020
There's a magician, meth head, tiger tamer, country singer, gay polygamist, an Alex Jones type but with live tigers in his videos, and presidential/gubernatorial candidate.
Mom: that's too many people to track
Me: oh that's just one guy
We're already holding out for a season 2 live with Joe Exotic from jail. Do your thing, Netflix.
