A prominent New York City event planner went viral after admitting he was asked to ‘suck a d***’ for the Fyre Festival during the Netflix documentary – and now he is responding to the many memes created about him. 

Andy King, who is the co-founder and creative director of Inward Point, was one of the key interviewee’s of Netflix’s documentary Fyre as he detailed his involvement in the failed festival. He went viral after the documentary aired for agreeing to ‘suck a d***’ so the organizers could get Evian water for the attendees. 

In an interview with Neflix after the documentary aired, Andy admitted he ‘didn’t want to be known as the Blowjob King of the World.’

Amazing: People were left shocked by the scene in the documentary and took to the internet to express their surprise 

Hilarious: Memes started popping up with Andy’s moment in the documentary 

Throwback: At one point, someone made a joke that Andy’s commitment might be necessary to end the government shutdown 

Creative: People joked online about what would make them pull an Andy 

The memes about Andy started after people viewed the the intense scene where Andy details how the Fyre team had to come up with a water solution. 

Days before the festival was set to kick off, organizer Billy McFarland was informed that customs would not release the four 18-wheeler trucks filled with Evian he shipped to the Bahamas until a $175,000 custom fee was paid. 

Billy was unable to come up with the cash needed, so he instead came up with an alternative plan. 

In a phone call conversation detailed by Andy during the documentary, Billy allegedly said: ”Well, you’re our wonderful gay leader and we need you to go down … will you suck d*** to fix this water problem?’

Andy then showered, washed out his mouth, and drove to meet the official where he was prepared to carry out his order. But the official decided to release the water to Andy with expectation of payment at a later date. 

The man’s dedication to do whatever possible for the festival was reiterated by people online who then decided to create hilarious memes about the moment. 

One viewer wrote while sharing a picture of Andy: ‘I’ve given FYRE FESTIVAL much of my time today but this scene TOOK ME OUT!!! #TakeOneForTheTeam.’ 

Another person compared what Andy did to helping out with the government shutdown.

Clever: The memes kept flooding in after the documentary aired about Andy 

Funny: Companies even got involved and created their own meme about Andy, who later told Netflix that he enjoyed hearing about the memes 

Relatable: Other memes joked about what students might be willing to do for a good grade 

Incredible: One person even connected a Lady Gaga song to the ‘suck his d***’ moment from the Fyre Festival documentary 

‘Day 33 of the government shutdown and only one man can save us and end this shutdown,’ the person wrote at the time. ‘You ready to take one for the team, Andy King?’ 

Other people called Andy ‘#friendgoals’ because he was willing to go to lengths for Billy when creating the festival. While one person wrote: ‘Imagine being the face of “yo, I’m willing to do ANYTHING…”‘ 

Although Andy admitted he did not want to be known solely as the ‘blowjob king’, he did enjoy the memes people have cleverly created online. 

‘I’m blown away with the response of the documentary,’ Andy told Netflix. ‘Completely blown away. I am now a noun, a verb, an adjective. It’s mind-boggling.’ 

Get it together: One meme joked about what Billy McFarland, who created Fyre Festival, was getting at by asking Andy to suck d***

Priorities: There were a good majority of memes relating Andy’s moment to the government shutdown 

Above and beyond: Other memes focused on what Andy could say to future employers based on his commitment to the Fyre Festival

Ultimately, Andy said he hopes to use these ’15 minutes of fame’ to do some good for the islanders who were most affected by the disgraced festival. 

‘One of our biggest goals, obviously, is paying back all the people in the Bahamas,’ he said. 

‘If I could drive positive influences and a lot of positive energy towards social and environmental impact, then I think I can utilize this moment to do a lot of good.’ 

Since the Netflix documentary aired earlier this month, a GoFundMe page was started for Maryann, who helped feed everyone during the disastrous event. She revealed during the documentary that she used $60,000 of her own money to pay her staff. 

The page has since raised $210,000 for the woman and the resort she runs on the island. 

The next goal, according to Andy, is now to raise money on a separate GoFundMe page for all the laborers on the island who have yet to be paid for their hard work to put on the festival.
