Jay Maynard is a self-proclaimed computer geek who became famous for his homemade Tron outfit he made back in the early 2000s. After posting photos of his costume to various websites, Jay quickly became one of the first examples of a real-life meme.
He has made numerous national television appearances including South Park, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Tosh.0, and America's Got Talent. The way Jay handled his unintended internet fame has become the model for many others who came after him.
