The only way he stops this is if a bunch of hipsters go there ironically to have the worst time ever.
If someone ironically pays me $8000, I’m still $8000 richer
I mean… It’s kind of a good idea. Ride that 'so fucked it’s cool ’ wave. Can’t wait to watch influencers invest yet again.
“Scandal-hit” lol
The dude straight up defrauded thousands of people. He didn’t cheat on his significant other. Though he’d probably do that a lot too he seems like a very crap person.
Fyrefest 2: Electric Boogaloo
Can’t wait for the documentary on netflix
Electrycfest
Why would you ever relaunch it, though?
How does Trump have supporters? There are nutters everywhere and more than enough to participate in something like this since you know this fraudster will get plenty of press for the event.
And even more politics, fun fun fun…
Those sweet royalties from the Netflix exposé docs, maybe.
Pride.
The only reason this would make sense to do is if the penalty of fraud is outweighed by the benefit.
Just waiting for the token drop 😂
Sorry, don’t give this any attention. It’s a scam and everyone knows it.
We should all go and crash it.
Gotcha, pack Molotovs.
Marshmallows. Pack marshmallows. It’ll catch fire on its own.
It’s always good to be prepared.
Can’t wait for the cheese sandwich.

At this point it’s just scammers going after the rich. So who cares.
If you’re stupid enough to fall for it after everything that’s happened, you deserve it.
His credit card was a fraud, his last festival was a fraud, he has been convicted of fraud.
You would have to be a world class dumbass to fall for this
Looks at Trump supporters. Plenty of dumbasses out there.
And there it is; Politics!
Yay…
What a relief! For a minute there I thought there was going to be a post where someone didn’t drag politics into it.
/s
Yeah, right! American politics is just fun on the bun!!!

I wonder if the chaos and turmoil is part of the whole shtick this time? Like it’s an art piece that you’re participating in?
I’m sure that’s part of it. I think also the last Fyre festival became such a sensation that people actually did wish they had gone just to be able to say they were there. For people with lots of money and nothing better to do, maybe thats all that matters
Documentaries don’t generally get sequels, but here’s hoping enough dumbasses buy in so Netflix/Hulu can do another set.
So bad it got two documentaries at the same time. Legend.
But it sounds so legit…
After being released last year, McFarland began planning a second incarnation of Fyre festival, which he said he devised during a stint in solitary confinement. He told his followers on social media: “This is everything I’ve been working towards. Let’s fucking go.”
He has followers.
Just, wow.
Fraud: not just for politicians! Whee.
All this tells me that it is easy to grift people with too much money.
I mean, it’s one
bananaFestival, Michael. What could it cost? 8000 dollars?
They’ll stop beating that dead horse when it stops spitting out money
Watching that shitshow unfold live was one of my top moments of old reddit / twitter.
Mine was the feeling of pride and accomplishment after watching reddit gangbang an EA representative get down voted into oblivion
Haha, “sense of accomplishment”.
