Adventure #2 - Salt Lake City, Utah

So after our cruise, Krystal and I started looking to see if there was anywhere we could still get tickets to see the guys. We had heard about 5* and really wanted to do that, but nothing in the US was available.

One day at work I decided to look and see what the closest venue to us would be. I saw Salt Lake City so I casually went into Ticketmaster to see what was there. 10th row tickets came up! I called Krystal in a panic and said let’s go to SLC. She was like, ok! So she bought the tickets and the next thing you know we are planning a weekend trip to Utah!

We decided to drive to save money (hahahahahaha) but booked a fancy hotel because we were convinced the guys would be staying there. This would be the beginning of some crazy decisions we would make in regards to the boys.

Stacy, Krystal and I met at my office and off we went towards Salt Lake City. We didn’t leave until about 3pm and it was going to be a long, long drive! We stopped in Carson City for some food and then kept going. We played MadLibs to keep ourselves occupied! OMG the things that were running through our minds as we played that game!!! We were having a blast! We got to SLC at about 5am, got a cheap hotel and slept for a few hours. We were planning on trying to find the guys, but after trying and trying, we failed miserably!

Our seats weren’t too bad. We were 10th row on the end on the left. A few times we ran up close to snap pictures since we were on the aisle. We knew all about the B stage so Krystal and I decided to run back there and try to get as close as we could. It was a smart idea! We got really close! I stood up on a chair and had an awesome view. I got great pics and video!

After the show we decided to wait at the back gate in the hopes of seeing one or more of the guys. At one point a van comes out and stops. Donnie jumps out and begins going down the line smacking everyone’s hands. Stacy was so excited!!! Unfortnately some stupid girls ruined it for everyone by running up to him. So he got back into the van and took off before he got to us.

They ended up not staying at the hotel we thought they would stay at, but we still had an awesome time! We drove home on Sunday and stopped in Reno for a little gambling and food. It was a long drive both ways, but the three of us had a blast and it was totally worth it!

The whole time driving home, I’m pretty sure Krystal was plotting something…
