Because 2020 never ceases to amaze, there’s now a Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, And Madness museum on the way which will feature memorabilia like Joe Exotic’s signature crown, as well as his, uh, penis pump.
2020 has been a trip, and one thing that started some of the madness was Netflix’s dramatised documentary Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, And Madness – a show that took a look at the bizarre circumstances surrounding a few Oklahoman big cats collectors.
The entire world of social media went mad for the new series, along with calling out that Carole Baskin must’ve killed her husband. Additionally, many called for the imprisoned Joe Exotic to be released, especially due to the fact that he’s immunocompromised.
Now, more Tiger King news has arose: there’s a museum in development that will host memorabilia which was formerly property of Joe Exotic, himself.
At the helm is actor Zak Bagans, as TMZ reports, who has collected a large number of items that belonged to Joe Exotic.
From clothing, items from his wedding, and his infamous jewel covered crown, to the more quirky collections of pill bottles, a glass pipe which belonged to his ex-husband Travis Maldonado, and even Exotic’s penis pump, the items are set to all be on display in the upcoming museum.
How did he come into possession of this menagerie of memorabilia? Bagans was actually gifted these items by Jeff Lowe, the purchaser of Exotic’s zoo following his arrest.

Furthermore, the museum will have the original sign from Exotic’s zoo on display from the time it was called Exotic Animal Park, as well as mural which will pay tribute to Maldonado’s death.
The collected memorabilia is set to be the centrepiece for the upcoming Tiger King exhibit that Bagans will put on in Las Vegas at Zak’s Haunted Museum.
