Man Secretly Keeps 350 lb. Tiger In NYC Apartment, Turns Out To Be A Not-So-Purrfect Roommate After Unfortunate Accident
Yeah, yeah, we've all seen Tiger King, but this guy was the Tiger King before Tiger King. Meet Ming, a 350 lb. tiger that was kept by Antoine Yates, who raised her in his apartment along with an alligator named Al. Ming, Al, and Antoine had two roommates in their 5 room apartment in NYC, which is completely unheard of in this day and age. Antoine and Ming were only found out because Ming bit Antoine, and when he rushed to the hospital claiming he was bitten by a Pit Bull, doctors suspected he was lying.
That led to NYPD investigating his apartment and found Ming not-so-happily greeting them. Luckily, Ming was safely transported to a tiger sanctuary where she lived out the rest of her days in peace. This story is a wild ride, so put on your crazy pants and get ready for some silly comments and astonishing facts from this true story below!

We've heard of getting a pet for protection, but we think that a tiger is taking things a little too far. And forget about getting the deposit back on that department, there's no way you live with a tiger and they don't break everything in sight.

Actually, in this situation, we want to know what the opposite of "pspspsps" is. We do not want that tiger anywhere near us, especially if it thinks we're trying to make it angry. Good Ming, nice Ming…
