Think it will finally be back? I’ll believe it when I see tickets on sale.

These Lebowski forums are hilarious; no one can make an original statement. It HAS to be a movie quote, when they SHOULD be talking about how this fest was never real, and the person who was all over social media claiming it was had been selling FAKE TICKETS. He stopped only on March 16, and that's probably because the ticket seller got wind of it and shut him down.

Yea saw the post about it being cancelled. I didn’t even see a post about tickets going on sale though. Some really should just start doing a new one.

He was selling tickets on all his pages and platforms, but people apparently were reporting it, and he'd delete the posts. He sure was giving it the ol' college try, though. He's gone pretty much silent since the cancellation. Thank goodness.

It really was a great time…many years for me in many cities. However, unfortunately, it’s not coming back. He has health problems.

Then he shouldn't have been all over social media promoting fake events and attemtpting to sell fake tickets.

Oh, I certainly know that. I hope he didn’t scam too many people out of their money. And doubtful he will refund any if he did.

Sales were handled by Ticket Leap. He claims that's who's issuing the refunds. I don't know. Mental illness isn't an excuse for being a grifter.

I agree. I did not know about the Ticket Leap part. We were on an extended vacation and avoided much of everything. The last I saw was on FB and he was giving out a Venmo thing. Claimed that he had booked a comic and a band.

Yeah, he did just try to have people Venmo him money. Nobody was that naive, I don't think, because people started calling him out immediately.

The fest isn't real. It never was. He was trying to scam fans out of ticket money. Some people got wise to it, and it's been "canceled."

One of these I went to had a costume contest - the winner was "The Rug". Literally just a dude wearing a rug like a poncho, complete with a big yellow "stain" cut out of paper 😂
