doesnt he have a ferrari and like several 10,000 dollar go carts and a membership at that new track that costs a lot? ever follow him on twitter? he's always abroad and traveling going to fancy restaurants.

why would i give him money when he spends it like it's nothing? guy blows through money.

he's not a charity case for me and i dont really care if stanley makes it or not.

This fundraiser sounds like a good way to piss a lot of people off. Your business model failed. Move on.

That statement about why they closed was delusional.

It wasn't just the costs to dine there that limited their customer base. It was also the menu format (prix fixe no ala carte) and his strict no substitutions policy that exponentially contracted his market.

I would have loved to hear what he had planned to do to rectify his declining sales. I bet he had nothing.

Lame. Not sure why he feels he is deserving of sympathy in this situation. Sucks that he had to close Stella but it sounds like he totally mishandled the situation.

The actions of a narcissist. Why should he suffer if you can suffer in his place.

Sad. So he's saying hey my business didn't last so come give me money because I screwed up??????

Will show no support for Stanley or any of this.

I do want to know who, if anyone, goes to this fundraiser.

Tickets are $200 in advance and $250 at the door.





What a douche. If I was an employee of his, I would be looking for a new job ASAP.

I've talked to several former employees of Stella and Stanley well before this incident/fiasco. Not one has said anything remotely good about Boswell or his operations
