This is one of those stories that makes going to concerts very worthwhile. Mark had given me two tickets to see Brad Paisley - with one condition - I take someone other than him! Mark isn't a country fan, so I took my bff Mandy. I found out at work one day that Carly (white blonde), and Kayla (plaid scarf above) were going to the same concert and were a couple rows away from Mandy and I!
We decided to meet at Chancey's for a couple apps and drinks before the concert. As we got the JLC, we decided to grab a drink in the bar. Given that it was a country concert, they were playing country songs in the bar. Now, if there is one thing I know about Carly and Kayla, they are a party no matter where you go. So, here we were in the JLC bar belting out the lyrics to a random country song. As we finished, this guy came up to us and asked if we were excited about the concert. We said of course we were! He asked where our seats were, and we said we were in the 100s, which were actually pretty good. He replied, oh, so you don't have front row then. Nope, we certainly did not, but wished we did! He said, here, take these. Have a good time.
He had handed me four front row tickets. I showed the girls and as I went to turn around to ask him where they were from, he was gone. No kidding. So we thought these were fakes. They must be, right?? Well, we thought there was no harm in trying to use them, if they were fakes we could just use our other tickets. Turns out they were completely REAL and we ended up having front row for opener Dierks Bentley and then the main event, Brad Paisley. As you can see by the pictures, we were as close as you could get! I even got one of Brad's guitar picks.
Mark said to me after - "See, that's why I didn't go with you! That would have never happened if I was there....." Great gift babe!
