I spent $100 to stand outside in the blazing heat for four hours. This ticket included no personal space (not even enough space to move my arms), being touched by sweaty strangers and being extremely angry at a lot of people who think it’s okay to push and try to get to the front of the crowd. Ahem.
Let me give you some backstory: My friend and I got general admission floor tickets to see ED SHEERAN (aka King of Everything Musical) just this past week. It was in Forest Hills stadium in Queens. “General admission won’t be bad,” we said. “It’ll be fine.” Nope.
We did not know the stadium was outdoors, first of all, nor did we realize how hot it would be outside. Ed was amazing but, as usual, concertgoers are ruthless humans and you too must be ruthless in the dog eat dog world that is general admission concerts. This is it, folks. Here is how to survive a general admission concert.
