No money likely meant not even cards to most of them, and possibly even no id to some since it was a chartered flight

For as much as they were told not to bring money because of possible theft, wouldn't Traveler's Checks have been an option? Granted it's been over a decade since I last traveled out of the US, but I thought Traveler's Checks were still a thing for those rare moments credit card usage wasn't an option.

how about: you're going to an island country and only one place there will scan your dumb little wristband. if you're that petrified of losing a couple hundred bucks, you should just stay home and use that money for xanax

It's hilarious that they could gently caress up this badly and then have the gall to offer people VIP passes for next years festival in lieu of refunds.

not sure if it's 'in lieu of'? but either way, lol that they're even thinking of attempting Feral Dog Adventure p2.

i hope it happens and with the same results, but more dogs

Juggalos are several magnitudes less evil than outlaw bikers, and I'm 100% for a merger between FyreFest and Gathering of Juggalos. As fun as they are to laugh at, juggalos are capable of self-policing, social contract, and not stabbing each other in the back. The thought of juggahoes and shirtless fat guys in greasepaint enforcing tribal law and order on a tent city full of whimpering popped collars just seems so right. Those who spent their Fyre festival weekend looting booze and complaining about the quality of the food should be allowed to experience the next stage of Libertopia: being conquered and subjugated by organized bandits in scary warpaint.

edit: the music would be way loving better too

Does anyone have anything solid on "these idiots went without any form of ID or payment aside from the beepboop wristband?"

I'm asking because the chartered flight, which I am not even sure doesn't require ID because I just don't know, was from Miami. People had to get to Miami on their own.

It's funny how all the outrage about being locked up in the airport and huge delays in the plane taking off were due to people nipping off for smokes and not hearing their names called because they were drunk.

I'm asking because the chartered flight, which I am not even sure doesn't require ID because I just don't know, was from Miami. People had to get to Miami on their own.

Just a lot of social media posts on Friday saying that they had no money for that reason. The people without ID were saying they got robbed, not that they didn't bring any ID. If anyone said that, it was prob a goon just inventing it because for some reason they needed something else to laugh at in addition to all the real stuff

It was pointed out earlier in the thread that there are ATMs within a mile or two of the location, but there were a lot of people saying thry had no money and it was fyre's fault for telling them not to bring cash. I assume they brought debit cards, but most likely none of these dumb fucks let their banks know they were traveling though, so if they actually realized they could go to an atm, their card got shut down because of a sudden and mysterious withdrawal from the bahamas.

Hi Fryeheads, we did some research in to clearing out the feral dogs for 2018, and it's going to be really expensive, and probably require some animal cruelty so we did what we do best, thought outside the box and brought you a solution that empowers you to control your own adventure! Here's a preview of the 2018 VIP wristband:
