Foos Gone Wild

A collective and movement built on the strength of user-submitted videos, artwork, and music on Instagram among other social media outlets. Skits like the Foo Files (fashioned after the X Files), Where is this Foo Going?, Foo News, y mas are often dubbed by a Foo, more than likely the Foos Gone Wild founder, King Foo, creating hilarious content. Highlights of Foos Gone Wild include catch phrases like Saca La Bolsita, Look At It Closely (#LAIC), Fuck Lames, and straight posting not giving a fuck. Much of the humor centers around Chicano foos from Los Angeles and throughout So Cal, but also targets foos of many persuasions and locales and pokes fun at just about everybody, especially lames and racists. Has been considered "the next WorldStar."
