    People who haven't been to a concert or on vacation for years would decide to splurge on this? Doesn't seem likely.

    Each and every time I read the phrase "Cheese Sandwich", I do it in the voice of Bernie Mac from Original Kings of Comedy.

    The answer to the riddle is an L.A. Phant.

    So the event organIzer was a 25 year old? Also, the tents were leftovers from disaster missions?

    I love this story.

    It's like a live re-enactment of the "Kamp Krusty" Simpsons episode. Only thing missing was a drunken Ja Rule impersonator stumbling through one of his songs.

    Their parents must have cheered after the plane took off.

    I love the sign off to the article ...

    Desus and Mero show on Vice channel mentioned the Fyre Festival tonight. They said -- If someone is selling something on Instagram and it's Ja Rule selling it you may not want to buy it. Also said the packages ranged from 500-12k. 12k is Ja Rule there to jerk you off when the plane lands.

    “Would you prefer to exchange your 2017 ticket(s) for additional 2018 VIP passes, as opposed to receiving a refund? (Ex: If you purchased 3 passes for 2017, you would receive 6 total 2018 VIP passes),” the form asks. “We have received support and commitments from several musicians to perform at next year’s event. We would be so thankful to have your support as well.”
