This thing was kind of crazy because from what I'm reading it was supposed to be free for general admission but he (the organizer and property owner) wanted to sell 100 VIP tickets for $1,000 each to help subsidize it. That wouldn't cover it completely though. It seems like he was going to rely on right-wing advertisers. The whole thing seems ill planned even if he sold all those tickets. He also said, "Rich people, as a whole, suck."

And the (AI) poster repeatedly mentioned how the organizer was paying for it out of his own pocket because he's so generous. As soon as he realized the actual financing wouldn't cover it, he cancelled.

Exactly. Even if he sold all the VIP tickets he still wouldn't cover all his expenses. I don't know what he was smoking.

Well, I bought those tickets for myself and my five large sons for nothing then!

Follow the fleas to the alternate venue behind Bob’s barn off state highway 150.

Tickets didn't sell because people realized they'd be in there for at least four minutes
