YouTuber MrBeast has issued an apology after his ‘MrBeast Experience’ at a Las Vegas resort did not live up to the billing.
The event at Resorts World Las Vegas was advertised as an “immersive” and “unforgettable” experience that included exclusive games, a MrBeast-themed menu and mystery bags thought to contain limited edition merch, including one with a $10,000 (£7,550) gift voucher.
Instead, the guests camped out in their hotel rooms waiting days for their bags to arrive. And when they did, the guests were underwhelmed.
“I was told to wait in my room for two days for a package to come, so I legit spent two days in my room for a package to come, and it was a box of chocolates,” Ms Metta said.
Several users said on social media that they received T-shirts in different sizes, which could be purchased for $9 (£7) online.

Ready to stop hearing about this dork
I have never watched a single video of his.
I never want to do it either.
He was in a video I watched once. I don’t remember the whole context, something to do with how he was so successful at working YT’s algorithm. Had never heard of the guy before then, and all of the content samples they showed were braindead nothingburgers.
I think it was a veritasium video. I know because it’s also the only time I’ve seen that dork on camera.
This tracks with my viewing habits, thanks!
If he pops up in a video of a channel I like, instantly thumbs down and block the video. Not rewarding that chode.
I blocked his ass on my kids YouTube but I can’t block it on his friends YouTube. I just point out how creepy and weird he is.
Dead eyes.
His smile NEVER reaches them. He’s such a grifter
He never figured out how to fake a smile. He knows a smile means moving the corners of the mputh up and showing some teeth, but his eyes remain dead and uncaring.
And him photoshopping every thumbnail to be overly saturated and bright with smoothed out skin doesn’t help.
He should shave his beard and get a slick back.
Judging by how Americans vote, this guy will be president within the next twenty years.
Shut your dirty fucking mouth
They hated him because he told the truth
Funny you say that, he publicly announced that he’ll run for president in the future
That’s the only possible upside to the nation sinking into a dictatorship, at least we’ll never have a duly elected President Beast… Silver linings and whatnot.
Max Headroom was about a society that decided their elections via tv ratings. We’re kinda already there.
We’ve already reached the point where only billionaires or celebrities can be candidates, extra points if they’re both. Kim Kardashian stands a better chance of being the first woman president over Harris, AOC, Warren, or any other qualified woman.
President of whatever remains of the US, that is.
Hey congrats to Mrbeast on being the 3rd mutant president of the United States of smoldering craters!
This, totally this. I hate America for spreading their empty vapid ideas over the world
Calm down satan.
Mr Beast is the quintessential example of someone who defines themselves by their unfathomable success, attributing it to their unique work-ethic and dedication, and then collapses under the weight of their impossibly large ego
I could cook a turkey on the heat of this burn.
Thank you.
My hopes for world evolution are dashed when I see people still falling for this stupid shit every day.
I hate influencers too so I get it, but I figure its mostly kids and young adults who grew up watching him, so I put the blame more on the systems and communities they grew up in.
Those kids should have been protected by say… A strong consumer protections board, or parents controlling their screen time & curating their viewing, government banning phones at school, or outright banning social media for kids, or a quality education teaching them media literacy - but all of those things are demonized as bad things that those socialist European countries have.
MrBeast Experience == Fyre Island
Nowhere near as epic. This would be like a pre-show to Fyre island.
Reminds me a lot of that botched Willy Wonka experience in Scotland.
Seems to have to apologize a lot…
“I’m sorry that I keep doing things that make me sorry.”
God damn, almost instinctually downvoted this post because I saw his face
Y’know, the thing about him, he’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes.
What a punchable face.
Thing is this isn’t the first time. He did more challenges with awards but once the video was done he took up and left off. Smiling to the bank with that uncanny valley expression.
Who wore it best?
Uncle Bob was far more convincing.
“Uncle Bob…? Ok!”
“Pitcher of tequila woman! Let’s dust off the firearms…”
He’s not sorry for anything honestly. He will continue to do bs like because of this fans. It maybe funny and cringe now but it will be interesting if he tries to run for office or alines with a political party. “ hey guys I just bought an election!”
Clearly, no one’s read Transmetropolitan lately.
how I wish the Republicans stayed in their reservations…
Frankly? The problem is, they do stay in those pens/pastures/suburban/semi-rural “communities” (straight-up engineered for their smooth, barely-verbal brains), and their minders know exactly where, when, and how to rustle 'em, as it were.
A metaphorical herd of cattle can be many things, including a gawdamned stampede.
What they’ll never be in the eyes of those in charge of them, though? Human.
MrBeast themed menu? Like a bunch of moldy lunchly?
Replying to a fan’s complaint on X, Donaldson admitted it “definitely isn’t the experience we hoped they’d deliver” and promised to make it up by inviting everyone affected to his studio.
I feel like this could have been on purpose. If it wasn’t he would have offered refunds.
I doubt it. Inviting to the studio is probably way cheaper - not everyone will do it since people would have to travel, and even when they come, there’s not much cost to a quick tour or whatever.
The issue is in the text. “We hoped they’d deliver.” This wasn’t a Mr Beast project, it’s something someone paid to slap his name and branding on and they did what people who usually do this stuff do. Hoped the branding would carry them and made an experience for as cheap as possible hoping to take in the cash.
I’m not saying Mr Beast is a good dude, but the stuff that he is actually personally involved in seems to at least have effort, even if it isn’t good. This was definitely a “we want to do a show we will pay you so we can call it the Mr Beast whatever.” His team said fine and he let them do whatever, and this third party squeezed money out of it and bungled it.
Who the hell cares about this random streamer.
Exactly. Paying 1000 dollars to see some scripted asshole is not how I would like to live. If was rich and had dumb kids that idolized him I would disable their internet access.
“grifter”. it’s nice to know who’s going to take advantage of you
isn’t he one of the most popular youtubers? idk, I keep hearing about him so he’s probably not ‘random’
I don’t know and don’t follow YouTube reality stars.
Any popular YouTuber is a random
what even is random
Giving Fyre Festival a run for its money.
