I hear Ryan Cohen has bought in
Don't smear a mans name like that.

one of the world’s infinitely renewable resources is stupid people
The first drop of 100 pre-sale tickets for Fyre Festival II went on sale Monday for $499 a pop and sold out within a day, according to the festival's website.
So 100 people have more money than sense.
If I had to guess, plenty of them are "influencers" the more of a disaster this is the better for their views on how horrible it was. It's a no lose situation for them.
If I knew then what I know now about the first fire fest, I would have considered trying to get tickets.
I have fairly low standards for a vacation, usually I like to go camping so spartan accomodations, meh food, etc. are pretty much par for the course. I usually do a good bit better for myself than the fyre fest provided, but I could make do just fine with what was available.
But man, I would have loved to watch all the entitled rich assholes melting down in-prson in real-time.

To be fair I did see a guy write online that he bought a ticket to the festival when the prices went way down claiming to be at most middle class.
Somebody should give a ticket to the guy who won his ticket in a raffle
last time they had it.
And the guy who secured the water.
I hope it goes exactly like last time. I laughed for months over that.
Even if it's shitty, at least it gives these losers something to talk about compared to the rest of their vapid wastes of lives.
I bet the ham cheese sandwiches are gonna be really good this time
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...
Gonna be so much YouTube drama from this one down the track, love watching a shit show unfold 🍿
I highly recommend the Netflix documentary about the first one. Very entertaining with a dosage of head shaking and sadness.
Felt so bad for the man that was fully prepared to go blow someone for water.
The guy is a pathological scam artist and liar.
The documentary showed when he was out on bail, he got caught doing similar ticket scams again!
It’s almost funny at this point because this seems to be all he knows how to do. I’m sure we’ll hear about this again and he’ll be going back to jail at some point.
