Jay Maynard, the Tron Guy

Jay Maynard (born July 27, 1960) became an Internet phenomenon when his costume inspired by the movie TRON spread across the net from postings on Slashdot and Fark. Jay's overweight physique and skintight tron costume was the subject of much derision on the net. He parlayed that notoriety into a series of appearances on the Jimmy Kimmel Live late-night talk show in 2004, becoming known as Tron Guy.

The Costume

Jay started with a white leotard.


The Man

Doublessly many people know of his suit, but what about the man behind the suit?

Before his World Wide fame and fortune, he was a humble average computer consultant with expertise in Mac OSX and Linux operating systems.

The Legacy

Many fellow computer nerds praise him for his outlandish costume design. His legend will live on. We honor you "Tron Guy"!

The Woman?

His feminine side.
