You may soon get the chance to shell out for some official Fyre Festival merch.
Billy McFarland,Mother the festival's founder, owes a breathtaking $26 million in restitutionto the victims of his scam, and according to Vulture the U.S. Marshals Service has two boxes of Fyre Festival merchandise that'll be auctioned off to help McFarland his debt.
SEE ALSO: A campaign to unfollow the Fyre Festival promoters is gaining tractionThe stash includes, "Fyre Festival-branded tee-shirts, sweatpants, sweatshirts, hats, wristbands and medallions." I'm not sure what a Fyre Festival medallion would cost but I would buy one for the schadenfreude alone. There's no word if Ja Rule's dignity is also included.
The U.S. Marshalls Service also told Vulture in what I imagine is an incredibly most deadpan email, "We know that there is tremendous interest in these items in the NY metro area in particular.”
Mashable has reached out to the Marshals for more details on the auction, including when they expect it to occur. It's entirely possible that it will become the peak symbol of millennial irony as this merch will likely sell for far more now than it ever would have at the festival itself.
In addition to the millions of dollars he has to pay back, McFarland was also sentenced to six years in prison for his actions.
