Tiger King Facts That Will Make This Show Seem Even Crazier

Ligers

Think Ligers are just a myth? Well, Joe Exotic is here to prove you wrong. Joe bred the infamous lion-tiger hybrids in the zoo.

Joe hired singers to perform a song about tigers. Joe sang sometimes, but the parts you probably applauded and downloaded were actually performed by the local Clinton Johnson Band.
