Curious if he will still take responsibility.
I'm not sure what's more obnoxious, these guys or their customers.
Damn, what a washout!Dude could be facing 40 years in prison.
Would set a good example for all future bro-marketing douchebags.

Puttin up 300 rep dollars that he serves under 10 years.

The line between bro-marketing ("I drive exotic cars" (but don't own/rent/lease any of them) and "I live in penthouses" (rented by the month) and actual fraud is very thin.

Could have saved money on hiring all the Victoria Secret models for the advertising (can't imagine that being cheap) and put it towards an actual event. Resulting in self-advertizing itself by attendees for the future events.
Bingo... I love case studies like these. If you can sell people a pile of bullshit like this, imagine how easy it is to sell them genuinely great products.Extremely interesting, Producers who actually produce value now have no excuse on why their product isn't selling. If people without value can sell dreams so can we.

Fyre Festival Organizer Sentenced to Six Years in Federal Prison
Looks like he gets 6
Probably in a country club prison and out in 2 on good behavior.
But I for one look forward to reading “the wolf of fyre island” and hope that the movie does it justice.
I've seen both the Netflix and Hulu versions....the Hulu version isn't as slick, but I think it tells the story from a law enforcement and attendees point of view.No idea how I landed on this thread, but Netflix has a hilarious and terrifying documentary on the whole situation.
