‘Papa’ John Schnatter Gives Tour of His Tacky Giant Mansion on TikTok | Eater
"A roughly 40,000-square-foot, ostentatious residence (valued around $11 million in 2019) presented via an MTV Cribs–style TikTok tour that reads as an attention-seeking showcase of wealth. The estate includes a private golf course, multiple pools, and a private lake; a dramatic entry through massive carved doors into a marble foyer dominated by an approximately 25-foot-tall clock shaped like two eagles in a sexual pose (a gag about “perfect timing”); a library the owner teases as the site of unspecified “footage”; a subterranean 22-car garage where the owner is filmed joyriding a tricycle and which contains a motorized turntable designed to move limousines; and a personal helicopter. The overall vibe is conspicuously lavish and, given the timing and context, widely perceived as tone-deaf and designed to provoke or solicit attention." - Jaya Saxena
