Tony Kornheiser's 'Why' meme originates from the long-running ESPN show 'Pardon the Interruption' (PTI). During the show's segments, Tony is known for his highly expressive reactions, and a specific still featuring him looking utterly baffled next to a giant on-screen 'WHY' graphic became a viral sensation. It is primarily used by sports fans and internet users to react to nonsensical news, terrible officiating, or any situation that defies logical explanation. The meme perfectly captures the collective exasperation felt when a decision is so bad that 'Why?' is the only possible question.
