Tilman Fertitta Announces New Reality Show Where Contestants Must Survive a Year on the Amount He Pays His Employees
Billionaire Tilman Fertitta, the "Billion Dollar Buyer" and owner of Landry's, is back in the headlines after posting a cryptic video of himself grinning at a large stack of shrimp. Within seconds, the internet did what it does best: overlayed audio of waitstaff union anthems and memed the clip into a commentary on wealth disparity. Irony alert: the man who made "busting budgets" a TV sport is now trending for creating a new reality contest where the prize is a single year of his minimum wage. The internet’s real punchline? "You can't win a billion, but you can try to survive on a crumb."
