What led to the bust of the ‘What the Duck’ Dunk party?
Basically, here’s the deal: social media lit up with pics of sneakerheads waiting outside Flight Club, all while the NYPD kept an eye on things. Then, Flight Club dropped the news—they had to cancel the drop and will reschedule later.
Some people claim they sold fake wristbands, while others say a raffle could’ve fixed the situation. Both ways, we gotta wait for Flight Club’s official word on the What The Dunk Dunks. But in case you’re looking to score a pair without the drama, don’t sweat it! There’s also a limited drop on the GOAT app happening on Oct. 11.
