It took on a bit of a life on TikTok - people sent things from all over the world, they live streamed it, I think a few people had concurrent Doug parties in different places. It was really cool.

I love this. So glad you shared that because I saw all of the food and decorations and wondered how many people went and I worried people didn't show. But it sounds like it was a big event?

I think the people who were "covering" it did a good job of keeping the location under wraps so that a thousand random people didn't show up and make it a big circus, but yeah from what I gather there was a good turnout, and it went off really well.
