Well this was an interesting story as apparently a very popular live streamer named Kai Cenat decided to do a public giveaway of items such as a PS5 gaming console. From the looks of it, there was no real event planning other than going out in public and giving it to whoever shows up. Well, so many people showed up to the point where it created chaos in the city and the police had to get involved. Apparently he is now being faced with riot charges.
When you have that type of success where your simple actions can draw such a huge crowd it would be wise to actually treat it like an event of sort which would mean going through processes such as getting an event permit. I’m sure it may look good on paper as it could be free publicity, but this is an example on how things can go wrong quickly when you are in that type of position status in life.
I remember one stunt that was tamer awhile back was how there literally were people that left money randomly somewhere while giving brief hints online as to its location. There were people seeking them out in which they were rewarded for it. However, this person was anonymous so It didn’t generate the same type of attention like this.
