If you've seen Tiger King on Netflix, fans may have seen the sneak peek into the GW Zoo's gift shop where Joe showed us some interesting souvenirs for sale. Unfortunately, due to the zoo no longer being owned by Joe, the original Tiger King Online Shop is now defunct. However, committed fans have managed to find an archived version, and the products are just as wild as Joe himself.
Even though those products are no longer for sale, there are still plenty of ways to show off their love and support for Joe and Tiger King with products around the web that fans can purchase today. Grab a credit card and get ready to see 5 products from Joe's original shop website and 5 fan merch items available today.
10 Available: Official Joe Exotic T-Shirts
While Joe's original merch page has been taken down, intrepid fans have managed to find a Facebook page that claims to be an official Joe Exotic Memorabilia Page!
It appears that products being sold from the page and the Tiger King Store Website are endorsed by Joe, and one post says that profits from a raffle to win a necklace will go towards an attorney for him. There are several t-shirts and hats available on the website, and the Facebook page shows a few other products that can be purchased. The website also has an address to send Joe letters!
9 Unavailable: Cashews
Joe Exotic and the colorful crew of characters that worked at his zoo may be a bit nutty, and his official website used to sell a few different kinds of nuts, including cashews. For $11.69, fans could get themselves an eight-ounce bag of cashews, which the website claims is one of the most eaten nuts around.
Other nut products sold on the website included honey roasted peanuts and two unknown products (the links are no longer functioning) called "Peanut Delite," and "Candy Nut Much." Fans are just nuts about Joe, and totally bummed that these treats are gone.
8 Unavailable: Joe Exotic Quote Travel Cup
Once upon a time, a zoo worker called Saff got bit by a tiger. After Saff was shipped off to a hospital, Joe being Joe uttered the sentence, "I'm never gunna financially recover from this." Uh, Joe, Saff literally lost his hand!
Etsy seller EmmyRoseStudio took this infamous phrase and plastered it onto a couple of metal travel cups, complete with the marks of a tiger scratch. For $30.59, you can get these or one of Emily's other Tiger King cups. There are even a few about the notorious Carole Baskin!
7 Unavailable: Skin Care Line
One might not expect to find a moisturizer or anti-wrinkle cream in a zoo, but the Garold Wayne Memorial Park was no ordinary zoo! Fans got a glimpse of some skincare products when Joe was showing a gift shop tour on Tiger King, but he didn't get to show everything.
There were over a dozen products to leave fans' skin feeling young and fresh, including a face wash, a scrub, a face mask, toner, and firming lotion. There's even an aftershave for those who shave their faces! Products ran from $11 to just under $15, and of course, they had Joe's face on them!
6 Available: Socks
If fans are hoping to keep their feet warm and simultaneously express their obsession with the tiger king himself, look no further. The company Rock 'Em Socks has a few pairs of Joe Exotic socks that show off his face and the fact that he is the king of the tigers.
One pair shows Joe on a tiger-striped sock with a crown and speech bubbles with things he has said. Another pair shows a tiger on Joe's throne seen in the documentary while Joe sits in what appears to be a cage underneath. The website also has a Carole Baskin related pair of socks!
5 Unavailable: Candy
If fans have got a sweet tooth, they would have loved Joe's website's candy section. Some of the candy was fittingly animal-themed such as gummy bears, worms, and frogs.
Nothing like checking out a bear in the zoo while chowing down on some tiny gummy versions. Other candies gave the tongue a thrill of a lifetime including sour patch candies, fruit sour balls, and a spicy cinnamon candy called "Hot Tamales!" Hopefully, Joe's zoo had a lot of walking so that guests could walk off all that sugar! (Not a photo of the actual product sold at the GW zoo.)
4 Available: Phone Case
When it comes to protecting fans' precious cell phone, they'll want a case that is tough and strong. What's tougher than a tiger and Joe Exotic?! Just take a look at this phone case on Etsy made by user KulturePopped, and it's only $23!
Fans can get a case for several different iPhone models, and they are all made from extremely strong plastic with a rubber liner inside. They are also compatible for wireless charging! Additionally, KulturePopped sells a couple of other Joe Exotic items, including a large fleece blanket and even a fanny pack!
3 Unavailable: Condoms
Once upon a time, people could bring Joe Exotic into their bedroom with his personalized condoms. Some were available in his gift shop as well as online, and he had others made to give out during political events when he was running for president of the United States and governor of Oklahoma.
Those condoms said, "For your protection, vote Joe Exotic," and in the show he used the phrase, "Vote for me, or you'll need this 'cause you're screwed." Frisky fans could get a three-pack of condoms on his website for $2.25, and according to the description, they're made "as pleasant as possible." Additionally, 75 cents of each condom purchase would go towards helping protect tigers in the wild and in captivity.
2 Available: Joe Exotic Earrings
Ever wanted to wear the face of fan-favorite gay gun-loving redneck on one's ears? Well, now fans can thanks to RyanBeTryin on Etsy!
Ryan sells earrings of Joe Exotic's head, and for only $8 fans can purchase a pair of their very own for thier lobes. Joe himself is known for wearing piercings not only on his ears but also his eyebrow, nipples, and another place that won't be mentioned. Ryan sells earrings of other celebrities' faces too including Donald Trump, the ladies from The Golden Girls, Post Malone, and even Dr. Phill!
1 Unavailable: Honey
If fans are looking for a product that comes directly from the animals, Joe's zoo sold jars of honey. For $12 fans could get a small jar, and $15 would get sweet-toothed fans a large jar. The website claims that it's the best honey in the world, fresh from the bees, but it is unclear exactly where it came from.
It is unknown whether or not Joe had bees at his zoo or if he was getting the honey from a beekeeper somewhere. Supposedly it was pretty good because the description says, "You will never use store honey again." (Not a photo of the actual product sold at the GW zoo.)
