Here’s something that might get Fred Durtz so pissed, he turns his hat forward in rage.
An internet rumor about a secret Limp Bizkit show in Ohio turned out to be just a hoax because everyone knows Limp Bizkit couldn’t sell out a gas station these days.
The rumour started on Facebook, where a man named Brian Baker set up a ‘Limp Bizkit to play 4/20 Secret Show’ which got picked up by both Dayton.com and a local NBC news outlet.
The Dayton Police Department pleaded with citizens not to turn up, tweeting: “BE AWARE: There is NO Limp Bizkit concert Wed 4/20 at Sunoco station at Keowee St & Wayne Ave. These ads FALSE,” and even lead singer Fred Durst shot down the hoax on Twitter, but this message clearly didn’t get through to a few hardcore Bizkit fans, who formed a crowd at the Sunoco station yesterday.
Over 100 people stuck around after the station was closed and resorted to playing the Limp Bizkit on their car stereos instead. So it was just a typical night for them.
One of the co-administrators of the Facebook event, Andy Rowe, told the Daily Beast: “I have never laughed so hard like I have these last two days, yet understood so little about why it’s funny in the first place.
Well played, sir.
