YouTuber MrBeast has issued an apology after his ‘MrBeast Experience’ at a Las Vegas resort did not live up to the billing.
The event at Resorts World Las Vegas was advertised as an “immersive” and “unforgettable” experience that included exclusive games, a MrBeast-themed menu and mystery bags thought to contain limited edition merch, including one with a $10,000 (£7,550) gift voucher.
Instead, the guests camped out in their hotel rooms waiting days for their bags to arrive. And when they did, the guests were underwhelmed.
“I was told to wait in my room for two days for a package to come, so I legit spent two days in my room for a package to come, and it was a box of chocolates,” Ms Metta said.
Several users said on social media that they received T-shirts in different sizes, which could be purchased for $9 (£7) online.
there’s no way this dude hasn’t hired a PR firm and management consultants. this is just the brand image he has now. remember that this dude used to make videos like counting to a thousand.
dude got a firm to tell him he’s Willy Wonka and now he has another firm sculpting that image for him behind the scenes. Mr beast and his crew are just the front end operations that can’t manage to stop fucking up on their own right.
The ghost kitchen venture and the chocolate venture were handled by external companies certainly It was just one of those slap your name on this thing.
But look deeper into the mismanagement of the events and the videos. Especially the last couple Vegas stints. Any event company would have had the first responders properly lined up and dangers managed. Especially in Vegas they do this kind of shit all the time.
Every single off the wall of event that he stages is just poorly managed. When people start asking questions and pointing fingers it ends up with him and his actual crew. There aren’t any adults in the room.
no, they absolutely have teams and teams of suits working for them. people who get blamed are just the front end of the company, but this guy absolutely has a whole back office working for him.
