Stop crying over your single jelly bean and laugh at these 26 Wonka experience memes

What a mad time to be on the internet right now. The whole world is either down a rabbit hole of Kate Middleton theories or screaming over “The Unknown” at the Glasgow Willy Wonka experience chaos.

Both the man who played Wonka at the experience and everyone’s favourite Oompa Loompa have spoken out about how embarrassing the experience was for them and how they felt they were also scammed by the organisers. The man in charge of the event has said he is “truly and utterly sorry” but that hasn’t stopped the memes flowing in thick and fast.

So stop screaming at The Unknown and laugh at these 26 Glasgow Wonka experience memes instead:

23. Fair point

To be fair, historically most children on a Willy Wonka tour end up dead, so seeing an underwhelming backdrop for £35 is actually a positive outcome

My theory is that Kate Middleton wandered off during the Willy Wonka Experience in Glasgow and is currently stuck to the ceiling after drinking fizzy lifting drink

House of Illuminati, the company behind the event, said: “Today has been a very stressful and frustrating day for many and for that we are truly sorry. Unfortunately last minute we were let down in many areas of our event and tried our best to continue on and push through and now realise we probably should have cancelled first thing this morning instead.

“We fully apologise for what has happened and will be giving full refunds to each and every person who purchased tickets. We planned a fabulous event and it just did not take shape as planned and for that we are truly sorry we are devastated at how this has turned out and understand people’s anger and frustration that everyone has had, refunds have already started being issued and the rest should be over the coming days, again we are truely sorry to everyone.”
