No More Techcrunch 50? Did Arrington And Calacanis Have a Lovers Tiff?

Arrington and Calacanis

I know it’s hard to believe a lot of what you see in Loren Feldmans satirical puppet videos but there is sometimes truth buried in them. Especially in this one which features a very real Jason Calacanis saying that there will be no more Techcrunch 50 event.

Calacanis looks a little more than rather sincere when he says it.

So, if there is any truth to this, why have Calacanis and Arrington thrown in the towel. Feldman alludes to a falling out between the two?

There is a second video posted a little later that features Calacanis and an Arrington puppet where Calacanis says that there might be another Techcrunch 50 if they “make up tonight”.

Again, Calacanis looks a little too serious.

Here are the two videos so you can see for yourself.

First up Calacanis with the Feldman puppet:

Now Calacanis with the Arrington puppet:

It’s all conjecture and “reading between the lines” at this point.

It may be nothing, it may be everything.

Opinion?  Did Arrington and Calacanis have a lovers tiff? If they did, what does it mean for the future of Techcrunch 50?

Update: It’s been confirmed that there will be no more Techcrunch50’s!
