NYE with Z103.5 RIP OFF
The New Years Eve party at the Canard Centre was terriable. For VIP tickets it cost $100 being guarenteed that we would be entered in to win prizes and have 5 drink tickets. Well upon arriving they gave us our bracelette without getting us to fill out

Studies have shown that prolonged audio exposure from listening to Z103 and C100 will ultimately result in early dementia.
The part I find amusing about all of this is that people actually paid $100 to be a VIP. Paying more money doesn’t make you more important…it makes you look like a ‘tard for spending $60 more than the “regular people” to have the same shitty time. Way to go.
First off. There was a blizzard warning for news years eve. People that put their safety in question deserve what they get.Yeah, I saw on the Facebook page that it was a real shitshow. Whatev. What I think is funnier is that there are college age dinkusses on there talking ‘class action law suit’ and other people crying about their lost keys. Fuck sakes, I don’t even leave my keys in my jacket when I go to a restaurant. Anyway,lawsuit. Hey, pre-law boy: do the words “no refund” and “not responsible for lost or stolen items” mean anything to you? Yep, even if they’re totally incompetent and have 3 coat check girls for 5000 people they still get off the hook.Anyway, I’m sure this will all be forgotten by the time that other fucktard comes up with his “world’s biggest pub crawl record attempt” again.You were a bunch of suckers who got duped. Next.
“You were a bunch of suckers who got duped. Next.” yes and yes.
hahaha.The fact that it was a Z103 production should’ve been your first clue, bud. hahaha.
My boyfriend worked security at this event. When I brought up this Bitch to him, he said that VIP were automatically entered. However, he DID agree that the party was garbage. I have to agree with that also. Because of him having to work this event, i spent NYE alone. Yeah.But anyways, security? They werent told shit about doing anything at all except letting ticket holders in.
Z103.5 did issue an apology…. and they didn’t even organize the event, they just ran ads for it. I have to give them a thumbs up for having the class to say they’re sorry when they didn’t even organize the event.
To each their own, but I just can’t imagine thinking, “hmmmm, big radio station-sponsored party, think I’ll go…” And especially, especially, after that Pub Crawl nonsense. Regardless, I’d like to hear your personal experiences with the event. Drop me a line at timb@thecoast.ca.
And, I see that the radio station is spinning furiously (and so far, successfully) to detach themselves from the event, but I can’t see how they don’t have at least some responsibility for it. These things should be vetted….
Sponsors aren’t organizers! Check who you paid your money to cause it wasn’t Z103.5!
Party On, Wayne.
