Baskin-Robbins Store Posts Sign With 'Tiger King' Joke And Sees Sales Increase

A Kansas Baskin-Robbins location wants to make one thing abundantly clear to its customers — it has absolutely zero affiliation with, or relation to Carole Baskin of Tiger King infamy.

You know, just in case there was any confusion.

On Sunday, this Junction City Baskin-Robbins changed its exterior sign to really get that point across.

Rather than advertising the flavor of the month, the sign hilariously reads, "No Relation To Carole Baskin", referencing the wildly popular Netflix docu-series, Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness.

If you haven't seen it yet, I highly, highly, *highly* recommend that you stop what you're doing and go watch it.

But for the time being, I'll just say this: Carole Baskin, the owner of Big Cat Rescue, has a shady past and viewers definitely took notice.

And while I'm not necessarily saying she killed her husband and fed him to one of their tigers, I'm also not not saying that.

Peggy Heldstab, the owner of this particular Baskin-Robbins location, admitted she actually hadn't even seen the series for herself yet.

In fact, she told TMZ it was actually her son who encouraged her to capitalize on the show's incredible popularity and make the sign change. Not knowing anything about Carole Baskin, or Tiger King as a whole, she simply trusted his instincts.

And it definitely paid off.

The hilarious sign was an instant hit with passers-by, and it's actually boosted ice cream sales.

Peggy said she hasn't heard anything from the Baskin-Robbins head office since her cheeky sign went viral, but she did confirm it's definitely led to a lot more foot traffic inside the store.

Oh, and now that she's seen a few episodes of the series, she says she'd happily serve Carole Baskin some ice cream if she ever happens to walk through the door.

But to that I say: just keep watching the show, Peggy. Just keep watching.
