What does the “Was brTT Arrested?” meme mean?
The joke works as an inside reference for Brazilian esports fans: whenever brTT's name comes up, someone brings back the fake arrest, as a wink that any League of Legends follower immediately gets. It is also used more broadly to poke fun at any exaggerated rumor that simply refuses to die.
Where does the “Was brTT Arrested?” meme come from?
The rumor started in 2013, after a photo of brTT talking to a police officer at an event circulated alongside a Facebook post from his then girlfriend, Giuliana Capitani, known as Caju. The post referenced vague controversies around the player before ironically denying everything, but the joke stuck and began spreading as if it were true. It resurfaced in 2021, when pro player Doublelift told Polish player Jankos, from G2, that brTT had been arrested, just to watch his surprised reaction.
