Therefore, the T-shirts carrying the necessary words became the last resort. Matching the cheering rants of the fans, MrBeast kept on going with the chant “PEWDIEPIE!” As they got seated, they did a test run to certify if they will be shown in the broadcast or not. After finding success, Jimmy and his crew were seated in order of “Sub 2 PewDiePie.”
