Nadu Flew

The O.J. Simpson Car Chase, The Apollo 11 Moon Landing, The Challenger Space Shuttle Disaster, and now Jeff Nadu landing at LAX. These are a few examples of when the world stood still and watched with so much intensity that you could hear a pin drop from the other side of the state.

There is a long, convoluted backstory that I don't care to tell, but essentially, this guy Barry, who spent his last days on earth chasing Jeff Nadu, said Nadu was on the "no-fly" list and his biggest rival and leader of the #ryders, Rico Bosco, has run with it for years.

As a believer in Bosco, I too started to believe this man Nadu couldn't fly. Not without evidence, I might add, because he's done himself no favors in making anyone believe the contrary. Hell, even Eddie, who has had Jeff fly out for content in the past, couldn't recall him taking the flight home. I believed it was a scam, a lie, a fucking ruse that he would ever take to the air. Let's just go back to the last couple of months for a few more indicators:

COLUMBIA

Did he ever fly to Colombia? Did he find some sweet Latinas with phat asses and forget to tell us about it?? I think not.

"Anudder No Show" for Mook Can't Sleep

Mook and his show have been friends with Nadu since it's beginning, yet time and time again the Big Man on Campus never showed up to the stream.

Barstool Scottsdale Event

This may have been the Bet Gala or something else they did there, I can't recall, I just know he once again was a no-show.

I'm not pulling this idea of no flights out of thin air. It was beginning to be a boy who cried wolf situation. Gaz, who plays a part in booking the flights, apparently, announced an apology to Jeff for all the cancelled flights he's purchased on his behalf.

All I'm saying is the thought of him being on a no-fly list seemed to be a real possibility. I even decided to tweet at him, calling him a liar, which led to a "Since when did you become such a fucking clown?" DM from Nadu himself.

I was WRONG. He can fly. Big fucking deal.

I want to turn to the side where, somehow, Jeff is saying "This is my greatest work ever."

The simple fact is that the credit he should get for this "work" is none, absolutely zero. Coach Day already spoke to the fact that without Bosco, Nadu's Barstool appeal is the same as mentioned in the last three words of the sentence prior. So let's break down the facts and dig in to how Nadu pulled off the masterful long con.

1.) Didn't show up to shows/events

2.) Repeat step one

3.) Beef with Joey Yanks & Rico Bosco

4.) Repeat step one

and here's the kicker..

5.) Have someone cancel your flight unwillingly then go dark mode until you land safely.

"No one on our side or Nadu’s side canceled the flight, so we eventually deducted that someone must have gotten the confirmation number, and canceled the flight within the 18 minutes of him posting the video in the airport. Clear hole in United’s security, but that’s aside the fact. Fuck whoever canceled his flight, that’s a really messed up move. You’re a piece of shit."

Going dark was the only clear option after this happened, in hopes that it wouldn't happen again and I agree that whoever is responsible is behind some scummy work and I disavow, but without the platform of The Yak wondering where he went after his "jerkoffs" video then none of this would be possible.

All in all, it made for phenomenal content that I couldn't turn away from, and the highest live-viewed episode of The Yak ever, but let's not just act like it was all his doing. Without the joy that Dave and Big Cat get from fucking with Rico, none of this would have happened. Hell of a day though, props I guess. Now I'll have a coffee, relax, and wait for my subpoena. #ryde
