Read the following line from the great gatsby why my god they used to go there by the hundreds how does the quote illustrate the irony of gatsby's funeral

Answer: People Used to flock to Gatsby's house for parties, but no one acknowledged his death.

The irony of Gatsby's funeral is that hundreds of people would show up at his parties but no one showed up at his funeral. Even though he had everything and everyone loved him for his possessions, no one cared enough to know him personally. Nick was his only friend that Gatsby actually had.
