Terrible just like Philly. $1200 for restricted view behind the stage.

The smugness of people who got face-value tickets is vomit-inducing. I had a pre-sale code too. I sat in the queue for 8 hours too. So did a lot of people. Its not like we didn't try or jump through the hoops. And our kids are just as heart-broken. I'm so over the smugness that we somehow didn't try as hard as those who got tickets. [/quote]

Mine, too. Hours and hours - including the site kicking her back out into the queue when she had floor seats in her shopping cart. Even I cried that day, and I’m not a Swiftie. She was devastated.

Sorry you are sad, but this feels a bit over the top. People in other countries love Taylor Swift, but she's never going to go there, so they enjoy her music from afar.

Use the money you saved by not getting tickets to enjoy her music other ways. Spend it all on merch. Or discover other acts to follow, because many of them are just as good but just haven't received the same hype. [/quote]

[b]But those people’s close friends and family aren’t blasting their own attendance all over social media. DD’s friends who are going are showing no restraint or tact at all. Just talking about it constantly before and after. [/b]It’s pretty insensitive. At least it’s a life lesson to DD to be more mindful of others feelings. [/quote]

And your daughter wouldn't do the same if she were going?  [/quote]

She doesn’t even have social media. She has one “friend” that I can’t stand that wouldn’t shut up during the lead up to the concert and now won’t shut up about her post concert “depression” because it was awesome and it’s over. Some friend.[/quote]
Book a Pittsburgh hotel room. Drive 4 hrs. Enjoy what you can, be it last minute ticket luck or a parking lot of Swifties singing every word to every song. [/quote]

I know this is a thing people are doing, but I honestly don't get the appeal of driving hours, paying for a hotel, and negotiating stadium traffic/parking just to hang out in the parking lot of a concert.  Seems like being so close, yet so far, would be 100x harder on a kid than just skipping it altogether (especially if they're hoping for last minute tickets that in all likelihood aren't going to materialize).  It seems crel to me, but what do I know (mom of boys not into TS). [/quote]

I think for some kids it would be hard to understand. Like those on the younger end of things who don't/can't really understand that the chance of going & not getting tickets is greater than suddenly scoring tickets. My 15 yo would understand the chances would not be stacked in her favor and would be fine with being nearby, hearing the show, and the outside experience with all the fans.

We will be somewhat near Pittsburgh the weekend of those shows for her cousin's graduation festivities. She and her cousin both want to go hang out outside of the stadium. Both girls have already been to shows inside - my DD went to Nashville and my niece went to Philly. [/quote]
I wish I could  ❤️ this. 🫶🏾[/quote]
