People were promised an awesome festival filled with great food, entertainment and more! All for the low price of just $75. However, that wasn’t the case.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n The New York City Pizza festival was promoted as \u201ca day long celebration of the dough, cheese, tasty sauces and delicious toppings\u201d with a “uniquely authentic island cuisine experience\u201d and\u201clocal seafood, Bahamian-style sushi and even a pig roast.”<\/strong><\/p>\n When paying guests showed up, they are severely disapointed.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cIt was like the people from Fyre Festival decided to throw a pizza party,\u201d Connell Burke told\u00a0Gothamist<\/em><\/a>. \u201cIt was my girlfriend\u2019s birthday so I got the VIP tickets, so I spent $150 total for the two tickets. There\u2019s three pop-up tents to my left, one where they\u2019re taking cold pizzas out of delivery boxes and cutting them.”<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Syl Wia\/Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cThis thing is a joke!!! 4 tents, plates with small slices, over an hr wait to get in and we are still waiting now!!\u201d\u00a0wrote\u00a0<\/a>one guest. \u201cDon\u2019t bother peeps!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
