Toronto TikToker Jamison Lightfoot posted a video of himself putting up fake posters across Toronto and New York saying Drake and The Weeknd would be performing at Trinity Bellwoods Park in Toronto last weekend.

When Lightfoot jokingly explained his reasoning behind the prank, he said "it's not about the concert, it's about the friends and families finally getting an excuse to be with one another. To just talk and hang out in the park [...] Just kidding, I just want to watch the world burn."

Though the posters indicated in the fine print that the concert was a sham, Lightfoot ended the video at the park on the day of, with lots of people there. Of course, it could be just the usual crowd at Trinity Bellwoods, and it's not known if anyone was seriously duped.

The video cuts off before Lightfoot could talk to any of the attendees, but any up-to-date fan would have realized Drake is currently on his It's All A Blur tour while The Weeknd is prepping for the international leg of his After Hours Til Dawn tour.

Though many Drake fans would do unspeakable things for a free concert, Derrick Rose preferred to be on his phone playing chess during his stop in Glendale, Arizona this past week.
