Popular party promoter Andrew Wright, known for staging the popular Chug It and French Connection events, is set to be sentenced on November 21.

Wright is among three men found guilty in a $222 million fraud case involving the state-owned Institute of Sports. Investigators revealed that the group carried out a payroll scheme by writing, signing and cashing fraudulent checks for non-existent workers.

The news has sparked conversation about the future of Wright’s signature events. Chug It and French Connection were staples on the party calendar, drawing massive crowds and delivering memorable experiences. With Wright now facing sentencing, fans are left wondering whether the events will survive or if the local party scene will move on without them.
