Fans go to great lengths to see Taylor Swift in Pittsburgh

Two shows at Acrisure Stadium on The Eras Tour

THE CONCERT. LISA HARTSELL SAYS MAKING A LAST MINUTE DECISION TO DRIVE 13 HOURS TO SEE TAYLOR SWIFT IN PITTSBURGH WAS ALL WORTH IT. OUR FLIGHT OUT OF JACKSONVILLE LAST NIGHT KEPT GETTING DELAYED FURTHER AND FURTHER AND WE WERE FEARFUL THAT IT WAS GOING TO GET CANCELED. SO WE JUST DECIDED TO GET IN THE CAR AND DRIVE UP 13 HOUR DRIVE. SO WHAT ENDED UP HAPPENING WITH THAT FLIGHT? IT WENT OUT ON TIME. SO AS WE WERE DRIVING NORTH, SOMEWHERE AROUND SOUTH CAROLINA, WE TRACKED THE AIRPLANE. WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON FLYING OVER TOP OF US THE THINGS WE DO FOR OUR KIDS RIGHT? SO AS LONG AS THEY’RE HERE AND THEY’RE HAPPY, WE’RE HAPPY. LISA SAYS SHE’S FROM PENNSYLVANIA AND WANTED HER DAUGHTERS TO BE WITH THEIR COUSIN TO SEE TAYLOR SWIFT SHOW AT ACRISURE STADIUM. I’M GOING TO BE REAL EXCITED. I JUST LOVE HER MUSIC BECAUSE MY COUSIN INTRODUCED ME TO HER WHEN I WAS REALLY YOUNG. SO I KIND OF GREW UP LISTENING TO HER. MY COUSIN GOT ME INTO HER WHEN I WAS LIKE FOUR YEARS OLD AND I JUST LIKE LIKED LISTENING TO HER. EVER SINCE. I’M SO EXCITED THAT THEY’RE GOING TO BE HERE WITH ME. WE SPOTTED SWIFT WALKING TO ACRISURE STADIUM, SURROUNDED BY SECURITY, COVERING HER WITH FANS, YELLING. WE JUST SAW TAYLOR. FANS HAVE PAID THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO SEE THE STAR HIT THE STAGE. AMY BRAMER WAS THE LUCKY ONE AND MANAGED TO GET TICKETS TO TONIGHT’S SOLD OUT CONCERT FOR UNDER 300 BUCKS FOR HER AND HER DAUGHTER. THE DUO CELEBRATED BY DRESSING UP THIS OUTFIT WAS CHOSEN BY MY DAUGHTER AND I’D GO AHEAD AND TELL HER WHAT THE THEME. SO IT’S FOR LOVER WITH THE PINK AND THE ROSES TO MATCH THE ALBUM COVER AND THEN I WANTED HER TO MATCH ME AS WELL BECAUSE I WAS DOING LOVER. NOW, TAYLOR SWIFT SHOULD HIT THE STAGE AROUND 8:00 AND THERE’S ANOTHER CONCERT TOMORROW. REPORTING ON
