‘Cocaine Bear’ memes jump the shark in record time after Elon Musk gets involved

Who had 'Cocaine Bear' would become a meme sensation on their bingo card?

Of course, the premise of a bear who snorts an entire duffel bag full of cocaine and goes on a rampage is beyond ridiculous and was bound to become a meme favorite. And now that Elon Musk has chosen to get involved in the whole Cocaine Bear meme game, it’s going beyond ridiculous.

Cocaine Bear is based on a true story about a drug dealer who had to dump a duffel bag full of cocaine in a Tennessee forest and a bear happened to find the stash. It snorted the entire bag and of course, died shortly after. This was back in 1985 and the cocaine the bear ingested amounted to about $15 million. By the time they found the bear, it had made its way all the way to Georgia, which is a great premise for a comedy film, though the loosely-based adaptation is technically being categorized as an action-thriller that Elizabeth Banks directed.

Based on that storyline alone, the meme factory was inevitable and now, Musk has decided to join in on all the fun.

The official Cocaine Bear Twitter page is doing its part to keep the insane memes coming

With what Marjorie Taylor Greene is proposing these days, she has to be high on something.

Someone really likes Alden Ehrenreich.

This story is hard to believe if there wasn’t video to prove that the kicker caught his own blocked kick and ran it for a touchdown. These days, the kicker would most likely just look at the ball while all the other players fought over it.

Cocaine Bear has surpassed everyone’s expectations and has received an overwhelming amount of good reviews. The negative reviews the film is getting are crazy but to each their own. Maybe those guys were having a bad day.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is a popular meme with the Cocaine Bear crowd.

Ooh! Marvel fans may not like this guy after what he posted. There is room for all of it, silly cinema and all.

A duffel bag full of cocaine worth about $15 million would take down an elephant, let alone a bear. It’s a wonder the bear didn’t experience a heart attack sooner.

Of course, in response to Elon Musk’s tweet, an old tweet of his had to be dug up from the archives and it’s right on topic.

The struggle is real!

Cocaine Bear is currently in theaters and will be streaming on Peacock soon.
