  1. RIP to the Roadtrip of the Century: FYRE FEST 2 Postponed You can read about it here. We’re not crying, you’re crying. FYRE FEST 2 has been officially postponed. Yes, the Surly Horns beachy fever dream we were manifesting in Playa del Carmen has fizzled faster than a sparkler in a hurricane. Our team was ready. We were supposed to be rolling deep from Austin to Mexico in the Surly Horns Cybertruck, windows down, speakers up, living on a steady diet of road snacks and delusion. This was more than a music festival—it was a moment. A vibe. A questionable financial decision with a whole lot of Instagram potential. And let’s not forget the most tragic cancellation of all: Bibi Hadid will NOT be joining us. We repeat, Bibi Hadid is OUT. Even worse, @immamac has informed me that she's not returning our deposit, but that’s a separate trauma we’re working through with our lawyer. Playa del Carmen officials swear no permits had been issued. Do we believe them? Do we believe anyone anymore? TBD. The trust is broken, and so are our dreams of overpriced margaritas and sand in our shoes. We know many of you were counting on our coverage of the chaos, and we were counting on a few unforgettable selfies in questionable outfits. But for now, all we can say is: stay tuned. We’ll be posting updates as we attempt to untangle the refund situation (pro tip: Venmo transactions labeled “concert vibez” apparently aren’t protected under buyer protection). So here we are. Stuck in Austin. No beach. No lineup. No Bibi. No festival. Just us, a Cybertruck with a full tank, and way too much canned rosé. @South Austin, please go ahead and request Bibi's used panties. I hope it freaks her out. #FYREWASLIT #UntilItWasn’t #BibiComeBack
  2. Totally agree. Who cares how a great idea was produced? @BillyGoatHill @Im_smarter_then_you and @Longboard Horn, those Aggy toy action figures are freaking hilarious.
  3. Both things can be true. Prime can be a total blowhard fraud and his marketing efforts can be really good. In that regard, he is very similar to Billy McFarland and Fyre Fest. Great marketing for a fraud product. As someone who works in marketing, I admire many of the things he has done. The way he promoted his program wasn't done for you or me. It was done to resonate with today's players and it was successful. The videos they produced were the best I've ever seen. Compare that to Turtle Tom's horrible promotional efforts or even better, Jimbo's horrendous exertions. (But I won't say anything else bad about Jimbo. I miss him and weep every day since his departure.)
  4. I've defended him here plenty, mostly cause I admire the way he markets himself. However his stupid father antics are just embarrassing at this point.
  5. Reminds me of a funny Kordell Stewart story. Years ago, we went to a family party in Western Pennsylvania. We came from NYC and a young couple come from CA. The CA couple was the sweetest, nicest young LA couple you could ever expect to meet. I asked the old, huge, Pennsylvanian, angry, former-college-football-lineman/uncle-from-wife's-side what he thought of Kordell Stewart. (At the time, there were rumors amongst Steelers fans about Stewart's alt personal life, plus they hated his play.) Without a pause, he booms out at the top of his very-large lungs, "That n****r is a faggot!!!" Growing up in Texas in the 70's I wasn't surprised at all at his comments, but the poor little blonde couple from LA were unfortunately standing next to him. I'll never forget the frozen look of horror and giant eyes on their poor faces. You could tell they had literally never heard those word uttered, much less proudly announced at ear-splitting level. It was their 'Welcome to the rest of America' moment.
  6. You have to admit, this may be the greatest helicopter dad act in history, along w Bronny.
  7. Surly Horns FyreFest 2 Update: HUGE NEWS! Thanks to @immamac, Gigi Hadid is booked to join us for the Surly Horns Cybertruck drive to Playa Del Carmen for the May 30th concert weekend! We couldn't get Bela. It's going to take 32 hours from Austin to Play Del Carmen, so we are departing from the Surly office on Tuesday, May 27th at 8am sharp from the Surly Horns parking lot. Bring extra cash to pay off Mexican officials as we make our way across the country. There's still a couple of seats left, so book your seats now!!! In answer to your question, @South Austin, you cannot pay Gigi for a lap dance during the drive, so please do not ask her. Again, we represent Surly Horns, so any bad incidents reflect on the company as a whole. With @Beau Vine recently getting arrested in the drug sting, we can't afford any more incidents that could adversely affect our 501 c3 status. I will be providing updates when they are announced. To date, the only act booked to perform is Antonio Brown. (that's actually true, lol) That's all for now!
  8. Johntay is posting workout stuff and his fashion style. The NCAA spring transfer portal cycle for the 2025 college football season will officially open on Wednesday, April 16 and remain open through Friday, April 25. James Everett Jr is _routegod so guessing that is whom is training Johntay. While Everette didn't have a college career, his intense WR training techniques have made him a very popular private coach for players like Antonio Brown. To learn more about what makes @_routegod's training techniques unique, watch this Instagram video:
  9. Lol, in 2015, Katy HS got caught playing a player who had transferred in the week after his team lost their playoff game. In other words, he had gone to Katy HS less than a week before they played him in a playoff game! After getting exposed, Katy imposed some phony BS self-penalty and was put on probation for a year, but should have been rightly banned from the playoffs.
  10. You make me sad. I miss Jimbo so much.
  11. Agreed and actually, college athletics has always been corrupt. During the 19th century at it's inception, schools were routinely busted for bringing in and paying non-students to play. During the early part of the 20th century, service academies would often keep players at the college for years for 'further studies.'
  12. I'm hoping to have another exciting update soon about the Sacred Surly Horns Autographed Football.
  13. Upset cause I'm sharing updates about Johntay Cook...in the Johntay Cook updates thread.
  14. Plus, he wanted to stay at Duke but was replaced by a QB they went and got in the transfer portal.
  15. That’s the fun of it. We are watching his story play out. Maybe he’ll make it back. Maybe he won’t but it’s apparently interesting enough to make you click on the thread again and again.
  16. Like I’m not going to make that visual now
  17. Today's post. The posting strategy is more successful. Still, these are all Insta stories, so they won't be readily visible when a school checks out his social media. On another level, expending aimless amounts of energy by himself may be symbolic of his life right now. I find Johntay's story very relatable. He is a reminder that for so many men, we are often our own biggest obstacle to achieving our goals. Finally accepting that you are responsible for your own failings is a sign of acquiring the maturity to make the required changes in yourself. .
  18. Wow this sucks. I hope he can clear his name if he is, in fact, innocent.
  19. Some kind soul on TikTok posted these:
  20. Well, Johntay's post today is calculated to prove he's grinding, but stupid, inspiring quotes should only ever be seen on LinkedIn and the Successories online store. And lol at the posters who come to this thread to post that they don't care about Johntay Cook.
  21. I should have clarified that he has cleaned up his act on Instagram. He's stopped with the stupid, self-defeating, celeb-styled partying, braggadocio crap, as least for now, and is projecting an image that he is working hard to prove he deserves a second chance.
  22. Off-season distractions for the win.
  23. I hope he becomes a success, and he is seeming to get himself focused on what he needs to do to succeed. We shall see how it turns out. He certainly has erected some tall hurdles to overcome. I would not like to see him back at the University of Texas, but it would be a really great story, for sure! America loves you on the way up. We love to tear you down. And then we love a great redemption story.
