its ironic because gatsby had tons and tons of friends and noone came to his funeral its sad because all these people wanted somthing from him which who knows unless they wanted money it was never friendship or they would have went which they didnt. poor gatsby. RIP
Only a few people attend Gatsby's funeral, including Nick Carraway, Gatsby's father, a few servants, and Owl Eyes, a man Nick met at Gatsby's parties. Most of Gatsby's associates and party guests avoid his funeral, showing their lack of true connection to him.
Nick meets Meyer Wolfsheim, a notorious underworld figure who was associated with Gatsby and known for fixing the 1919 World Series. Wolfsheim expresses his regret at not being able to attend Gatsby's funeral and shares some insights about Gatsby's character and their shared history.
Dramatic irony. We know something that the characters on stage do not.

Gatsby's funeral showcases his isolated and lonely position within society, with only a few attendees and minimal acknowledgement of his accomplishments. This underlines how despite his wealth and lavish lifestyle, Gatsby was ultimately an outsider who never truly integrated into the elite circles of East Egg. His funeral highlights the superficial nature of the society he aspired to be a part of, emphasizing the emptiness of his pursuit of the American Dream.
Nick remembers the rainy day of Gatsby's death, where he was the only one who showed up at Gatsby's funeral. He reflects on Gatsby's hopeful and idealistic nature, realizing that Gatsby's dream was ultimately corrupted by the shallow and materialistic society they were a part of.
Klipspringer, often referred to as Gatsby's "boarder," wanted to attend Gatsby's funeral primarily to retrieve a pair of shoes he had left at Gatsby's mansion. His lack of genuine grief or emotional connection to Gatsby highlights the superficial nature of their relationship. Instead of mourning Gatsby’s death, Klipspringer is more concerned about his own belongings, emphasizing the theme of shallow connections in the world of the novel.
