Much like Bugs Bunny, Elmo’s staying power in pop culture (he has been 3 and a half years old for the past 46 years, after all) has resulted in him being the subject of memification on multiple occasions.
Most recently was when the fuzzy red muppet was accused of being a traitor by New York Knicks fans during the 2026 NBA finals after he tweeted “Elmo hopes both teams have fun!”
In my opinion, he had it coming.
Based on the memes we found featuring Elmo, it is clear that those beady, bulbous eyes have truly seen some shit.
So here’s to you, Elmo. May your eternal suffering not be in vain.
