What a Show!

Over the weekend, a few concerts took place on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday down at Lincoln Financial Field in South Philly.

It was a tiny artist that not too many people know about, and there definitely were not close to 100,000 people in and outside the stadium enjoying each show.

And by that, I mean the BIGGEST artist in the world currently and there were absolutely that many people surrounding the Linc and in their seats enjoying the show!

Yes, Taylor Swift was in town over the weekend and it was quite the spectacle!

I was actually in attendance for the show on Saturday night with my niece, Lily!

She is actually a part of the event staff for all of the Eagles games and also works a few select concerts taking place at the Linc!

And you know she was not going to miss Taylor!

I got to walk in the tunnel with her and clock in and then it was right to her post at the Pepsi Plaza!

Lily was super helpful to all the concertgoers assisting plenty of Swifties to their seats and giving them guidance throughout the stadium!

The event itself was incredible!

I got to see the merch first hand that people were lining up by the hundreds for on Thursday — a full day and a half before any of the shows even started!

Taylor put on an amazing show for all the people that were fortunate enough to be in the building and even thousands more outside who just wanted to hear their favorite artist sing.

If you haven’t seen the videos by now, thousands upon thousands of Taylor Swift die-hard fans surrounded the stadium singing their favorite songs and enjoying the show from outside!

I have never seen anything like that in all my years in the music industry!

Overall, I had an amazing time with Lily and I’m glad she got to work one of the shows!
