Closer to a DumpsterFyre Festival

I legitimately laughed out loud at the cheese and bread "meal". How in the hell does the ever happen

 

Holy shit. What a disaster but seriously they are locking people in like prisoners? I would have smashed the door open.

I would absolutely love to see the step by step process it took for that fucking bread and cheese to end up in that box and handed out as a meal.

 

I was alone in my room laughing hysterically about it last night. Reddit went down at the perfect time because people were already falling for the altright trolls before the story really blew up, people would have lost their shit after buying into the BS stories had reddit stayed up.

 

I legitimately can't stop chuckling about it.

 

Ja rule should have his wages garnished until each person receives a full refund. I know that's not how it works but still what a joke

 

I bet they sell it as an "open faced sandwich".

 

How on earth did they not see this coming before the guests arrived? Literally makes no sense. I'd think a few days before, you'd be able to tell - you know what, this whole thing is going to be a disaster, maybe we should not have thousands of people fly down.

 

I'm hoping for some incredible follow up stories to find out about this stuff.

 

seriously, this is the one thing that blows my mind. if they were given some TV dinner or sysco crap even that would be better.

also it looks like either super good sliced cheese. or super shitty.

 

As @yeahrightdude pointed out, the subreddit for the festival is a bonafide gold mine right now.

"just ate my first human" as a text post headline made me explode in a way that made me glad my boss snuck out early

 

Ja Rule's tweet/statement is pretty funny:

"...I truly apologize as this is NOT MY FAULT... but I'm taking responsibility"

What a stand up fellow!

 

Man, no one should feel bad for you if you "literally bankrupted" yourself for a 4 day luxury vacation.

 

Kind of bothers me that people are blaming the models or promoters or whatever they're calling them for endorsing this, yet no one seems to be saying anything about the artists who were supposed to be playing. Not that it's either's fault.

 

I mean, no, haha. It would be ridiculous for a band to play in an unstaffed, unsecured trash field. It is not on any one whatsoever beyond the event runners. Not IG models, not performers, not anyone.

 

Well yea haha my points not that the bands should take blame. I definitely worded it weird I guess I don't know how to say it. Honestly I'm probably reading in to a small handful of tweets haha

 

The artists have their management book a gig and then they play what they are supposed to play. I don't think the members are reading into the fest details like a fan would. Also staff and the models should't be blamed they were hired to do a job not worry about the logistics of the fest. But if they were told information about the fest being the way it was and to pretend and distract from the concertgoer from reality, then we have a different story.

 

I literally spent over two hours today reading about this

It's such a great combination of hilarious and absolutely fascinating

 

Aw man...Ja Rule is involved in this? I liked him in the first Fast and Furious movie.

 

Its too bad this fell through, but I can't help but think this thing was doomed from the start given the exorbitant price of tickets.

What kind of people does that attract?

 

Well Snapchat's discovery thing has a picture someone posted from there that just said "poor people suck" if that's any indication.
