Last April, after 3 hours and 100 redials later, we were lucky enough to get tickets to the ACM awards! When we got the tickets it just seemed so far off, but the weekend finally came and gone! We had a fun filled weekend. We got VIP floor tickets and were really close to stage. The downside was standing for 3 days........ We had tickets to the all day festivities Friday and Saturday at rangers stadium. Both nights severe storms came through which halted the show 3 hours........ Since we had floor tickets they ushered us underground in rangers stadium. So we found a seat on the floor and got comfy. Both nights were supposed to start at 7 and both nights started about 10. Since there was a 3 hour delay each performer only came out and sang one song. It was being recorded to be televised at a later date so all the redo's were annoying. The producer kept coming out saying " not enough energy" so they would redo the song...........
Which made for long nights.......
Since there was a lot of waiting around for storms to pass we got to people watch......a lot. We stared at a group of girls for 10 minutes one night while they tried to get the perfect duck lip selfie. So we showed them how to do it on try número uno!!!! We nailed it, lol.
A few of the performers stuff got ruined from the rain. Which worked out great for us. We got to see a few acoustic sets. Miranda and Patti Lovelace put on a great acoustic set!
The 2 day festival leading up to the awards show was fun fun fun!
On the way to the awards show Bri wasn't so sure about all this country music!
It was a mad house!
We had floor tickets to the awards too but it was hard to see over everyone standing. I ventured over to the first level and found some open seats that we claimed! Luckily we didn't get kicked out of them.
We had a fun weekend. Jones had fun at Papa and Grammy's and as soon as we got home Jones striped down to his undies and sprawled out on the couch!
Then we celebrated my birthday! The BIG 33..........
