Benson Boone!!!

"Sorry I'm here for.... Benson Boone!" lol "Slow it down...Benny!" Had to play off his lyrics! lol Holy Moly we had the time of our life!!! So here's the play by play! I bought our ickets back in May to surprise Penny for her Birthday in July!! The time had finally come!! It's Benson Boone Concert time!!! Yayyyy! I check my phone  in the morning in my AXS app for my tickets and no tickets!!! Ummmm what!!! So I immediately jumped on the phone with Stub Hub and was talking to a robot  for most the day! Ugh! Finally Stub Hub says your ticket provider has until 5pm to get the tickets to you! Well 5pm hit and no tickets! We are all ready to go at this point and now sitting at dinner! I get back on the phone with stub hub and finally get through the robot to an actual agent! Still can't just call and  talk to any one! It's all through the app and chat section! Ugh! So after about 45min to an hr then finally offer me new seats! If you didn't know stub hub has a fan protection plan where if you don't get your tickets then they will find you new tickets of what's available or refund you. Well at this point we are driving to the stadium-T-Mobile! I was finally offered...... get ready...... FLOOR SEATS! So all the hassle was well worth it! Omg! We were so freakn pumped to be so close to the stage and Benson Boone!!!!
We arrived early enough for a little photo shoot sesh! The girls love to take the pics on their vintage digital cameras! :) I'm totally here for it! You all know I love the pics! 
Doors opened and we be lined for our  New Floor Seats! We were so pumped up! The pic in this collage of the stage was taken from my original seats that we basically got scammed on! I highlighted where we were standing on the floor! What an upgrade!!! Be sides the fact that we stood all night the adrenalin was pumping and we didn't even realize how sore we really were! lol 
We were so freakn hyped! After 2 songs in Penny and Kami ended up right against the barrier fencing from Benson Boone and the stage! It was incredible! Holy Moly! We were living it up!! I have never been this close to a performer! 
My concert going dreams came true!!! lol To be standing so close to the stage and with such a good clean crowd! It was litty!!!! lol I didn't even have to zoom my camera in!!! We literally could see every feature and sweat on Benny! lol We non- stopped screamed and sang to the top of our lungs!!! 
Oh Benny you were stilling our hearts! Kami screamed out "I love You" and he heard her and looked over to us and said the words back "I love you too!" The girls were freaking out! Then Penny waved and screamed out and he smiled and waved directly back to her!! It was so awesome!!! I've got videos to prove it! lol We were so hyped!! Next level hyped! lol
Then at the end Benson Boone jumped off his stage into the crowd and ran around the entire stage! Well guess where we were.... Oh that's right so freakn close to the stage with only a fence between the small aisle way and the stage and here came Benny running and grabbing fan's hands! Penny and Kami had their arms stretched out as far as they  could go and grabbed his arms!! The crowd was wild and the girls were so freakn excited! They got to touch Benson Boone and I got it on video and still shot pics! Wahoo! It was the girls shining moment and I got it! Yayyyyy! He performed for a solid 2 hrs and still came out for an encore! It was hands down one of the best concerts I have been too! He sang flawlessly and effortlessly! His voice was incredible! Oh what a fabulous, incredible, amazing concert night! Loved being with my lucky Penny too! Love our memories together! Best birthday gift ever...Tickets to Benson Boone! I would 100% see him again!! We love you Benson Boone! You are incredible!
