    why anyone would go to Fyre Festival 2, after what happened at Fyre Festival… is beyond me.

    Like. How dumb can you be?

    OK hear me out on this business idea: The Fyre Challenge.

    Contestants are flown to an isolated beach/playa with nothing more than a ripped tent, a punctured blow up mattress, and basic rations containing stale bread and sweaty ham, and a bottle of warm water. There is no phone service or electricity.

    Contestants have to survive 3 days off the land, then find their way back to civilization by any means possible (homemade rafts, bribery, hijacking,etc).

    The winner is the first to reach the Statue of Liberty with a quarter pounder w/ cheese in hand. The winner gets $1,000,000 and a date with Gigi Hadid.

    ““One, our accommodations include contracts, the number of villas, yachts and hotels. This also includes two hotels who are contacted by the media and in response, gave misleading statements saying they never heard of Fyre and they aren’t working with us,” he continued. “After hearing this, I asked my team to terminate those contracts and to focus on the hotels and other partners who are eager to work with and support Fyre.”

    Just another grifter. I hope anyone that gives this man money ends up in the same situation as last time.

    Yeah okay, good luck with that. Just make sure there’s cameras around, because the documentary about the first one was quite entertaining.
