O.J. Simpson Tweets ‘Coronavirus? Who’s Afraid?’ With A Photo From Costco And The Jokes Just Wrote Themselves

The news this week has been dominated by the numerous rapidly evolving developments surrounding the worldwide coronavirus outbreak.

Not only have thousands of people gotten sick, the coronavirus panic has negatively affected numerous public events, supplies, financial markets and more, including things like March Madness (at every level), the NBA, The Masters, the Summer Olympics, soccer matches, movie releases, music festivals, toilet paper, Tinder… it goes on and on.

A World Health Organization research expert admitted “we really don’t know what disease this is” when discussing the coronavirus, and studies and simulations have estimated that anywhere from 15 to 68 million people could die as a result of the pandemic.

So, naturally, who else’s thoughts would we all want to hear when it comes to the coronavirus? Why, America’s favorite legal expert O.J. Simpson, of course.

The ever self-aware Simpson tweeted a photo on Friday of himself stocking up on supplies at Costco including staples like water, toilet paper (again with the toilet paper?), paper towels, and paper cups, with the caption, “Coronavirus? Who’s afraid?”

Twitter, as one would expect, responded. “The Juice” hid a whole slew of responses…. “some replies were hidden by the Tweet author” it says on his tweet … but that hasn’t slowed anybody down.

Thanks, Juice. We really needed a good laugh today.
