This meme refers to a real viral incident involving the University of Texas football team in 2021 — specifically Jeff Banks, who was the special teams coordinator, and his girlfriend, an exotic dancer known by her stage name “Pole Assassin.”

Here’s the backstory:
  • Jeff Banks had joined the Texas Longhorns football staff under head coach Steve Sarkisian.
  • His girlfriend, who performed under the name Pole Assassin, was a well-known dancer and even appeared on The Jerry Springer Show.
  • She also owned a pet monkey named Gia, which she sometimes featured in her performances.
  • During Halloween 2021, the couple hosted a haunted house event at their home in Austin.
  • At some point, a child (a trick-or-treater) allegedly wandered into a restricted area where the pet monkey was kept — and the monkey bit the child.
  • Local news and social media erupted with the bizarre story of “the special teams coach’s stripper girlfriend’s pet monkey biting a kid.”
  • The girlfriend defended herself on Twitter, claiming the child entered an area clearly marked as “Do Not Enter” and that the monkey didn’t attack unprovoked.
The absurdity of all the details — a Texas football coach, a stripper named Pole Assassin, a pet monkey, and a trick-or-treater — turned it into one of the most infamous and meme-worthy college football stories in years.

The meme you shared is poking fun at how long it’s been ("1,461 days") since that chaotic event, contrasting it with the confusion of another fanbase (in this case, probably Vanderbilt or another “V” school) that’s just bewildered hearing about it for the first time.
