Joe Exotic is back in the spotlight with a holiday announcement that instantly sparked reactions across social media.
The former Tiger King star Joe Exotic revealed on Instagram that fans can now purchase personal phone calls with him while he remains behind bars. According to his post, the calls are meant as a Christmas special for supporters who want to talk to him directly. The offer is already spreading fast across his community.
Surprise Holiday Pitch
Joe Exotic framed the idea as a way for people to share a moment with him during the festive season. Reactions online range from funny to confused, with some calling it a classic Joe move and others sharing memes about the unusual offer. Even so, his core fan base seems interested, especially after he emphasized that this might be one of the few ways to speak to him while his legal situation continues.
Joe Exotic has been in federal prison since 2020 after being convicted for attempted murder involving Carole Baskin. He was also found guilty of multiple wildlife violations, which added more time to his sentence. Despite this, he has stayed active on social platforms through people managing his accounts, making sure the public still hears from him regularly. Whether people see it as entertainment or a publicity stunt, the offer has already become a viral moment in the lead up to the holidays.
