I watched the Netflix one and came in prepared to feel bad for McFarland. I am pretty sensitive and feel bad for people easily, even if they dig their own graves. I expected it to be somewhat of a case of an idiot with no event-planning experience getting in way above their head and the whole thing spiraling out of control.

But yeah. It was a pretty calculated fuck up and it's hard to sympathize with him. The documentary obviously has an agenda and wants to tell a compelling story, but you get the sense that Billy gives zero fucks about anyone, will throw them under the bus (or worse, as evidenced by one particularly disturbing scenario recalled by a gay colleague), and it evolved into a massive scam. Then, when he's out on bail, he ends up running another shameless scam targeting the festival attendees by selling them fake tickets for other events, demonstrating a complete lack of remorse.

So both? He was clearly delusional to think he could pull this off after his staff spelled out very huge problems they had with lack of housing and resources. Apparently he was very stressed and horrified that it inevitably came crashing down. But he turned around right away and continued scamming.
