>What in the actual fuck
This person needs to spend less time using childish turns of phrase on the internet and more time understanding the contracts he enters his business into.
If the screenshot of SXSW's force majeure language is real, his attitude has evaporated any sympathy I otherwise had.

Some Fyre Festival goers got money back, and that event did actually happen (in some sense of the word). It is surprising that SXSW did not have insurance to cover refunds, but if you never give refunds you probably don't need insurance and get to walk away with some profit.
- qtplatypus 7y agoMost insurance companies have force Force majeure/act of god clauses that would exclude them from this as well. Also it is highly likely that they are going to leave this with a loss. The convention space that they rented will not be able to be refunded as well, as well as advertising expenses etc.
