However .. there are some crimson (sans white and blue) flags with the publish … for example, the alleged coordinator — T-Mellon Occasions — would not seem to exist, as far as TMZ might discover whereas trying to find enterprise data. What’s extra — on ALL of Craigslist within the U.S., T-Mellon Occasions solely seems on this single itemizing.

Would-be parade spectators have been advised that, along with the $1,000 in cryptocurrency, they’d get a “quick meals” lunch and soda.
