Fat men's club From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Fat men's clubs were a type of social club that peaked in popularity from the late 19th to early 20th centuries, primarily in the United States. Membership was typically limited to men weighing over 200 lb (91 kg), and members were generally quite wealthy as well. Fat men's clubs declined in the 20th century as male obesity transitioned to being perceived as a primarily negative trait.
What it means

A fake Wikipedia article describes “fat men’s clubs” as exclusive social clubs for wealthy men weighing over 200 pounds. The joke comes from presenting obesity as a prestigious historical membership requirement in a dry, encyclopedic style, making it useful as an absurd reaction to someone romanticizing the past or inventing a ridiculous institution.
