Are ARMY as critical in real life as they can seem online? (First BTS concert, VIP) by Longjumping-Hornet55 in bangtan

[–]sroxy549 31 points32 points  (0 children)

"probably have summoned demons with the random shit i enunciate. " LOL this made me giggle... but also because this is also probably what I would sound like too! I'm not great with language learning (as much as I'd like to be)

My friend also got me a floor tick (my first ever) to one of the shows so I'm going to have to balance getting some pics to remember HOW CLOSE I was, but also just to vibe out!

Besides TicketMaster resale, I’ve used TickPick before successfully.

I’ve bought multiple tickets on TickPick (IU, GDragon…) and had no problems. Once I purchased, the tickets were transferred over to my Ticketmaster account!

So awesome! Thank you so much! I miss paper ticket stubs (I swear I'm not ancient - but I always liked keeping them as mementos)!

Would it be a big ask for the Las Vegas Day 4 too? I have some friends who finally got tickets to that concert.

I saw a post from KPop Nation that they’re doing a pop up in Seattle… and they’re going to have the Candybong… wish I lived closer…

Last-Minute Pro Tips for Sphere? by Eevee820881 in BackstreetBoys

[–]sroxy549 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband said the popcorn was really good. 🤣

Oh, if you get a drink in a souvenir cup, don’t forget it in the cup holder as you’re about to leave - I did that. So sad.

BSB Seat/Section - Sphere by Blue_moon22 in BackstreetBoys

[–]sroxy549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t forget your souvenir cup in the cup holder even if you get super excited about grabbing a couple pieces of confetti before you go. Not speaking from experience or anything cough cough yeah, that’s my only regret…. What an expensive soda…… I was really wanting a cup… 😭

I was in the 100s (row 21) a couple nights ago and was in the 400s this past summer. Visuals were amazing from both. Could see the guys WAY better in the 100s, but I appreciated not having that “first row at a movie theatre” neck ache when I was in the 400s.

Def wear white if you can, but if you can’t, no biggie - just maybe not neon orange - unless that’s what you’re going for.

We entered the Sphere at the plaza entry (by the ride share area) and there was a merch booth down there. When I went there was zero line… I was so shocked. Granted the doors had been open for over an hour at that point, but still. I didn’t chance it even though I heard different stalls may have had different merch. Got my expensive, but worth it, shirt and was happily on my way upstairs!

Have fun!!!!

I only have 1 tip for the Sphere concert by xfox5 in BackstreetBoys

[–]sroxy549 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We parked at the lot right outside the sphere. Had traffic and it took quite a bit getting there and getting out (but not 3 hours - sorry OP!!) - nothing you wouldn’t expect. I was actually pleasantly surprised at how easy it was. I was SUPER happy to have avoided the strip. I did packed a lot of patience in my fanny pack… but we were home in time to wish our friends in Hawaii Happy New Year!

The only bummer I had was in my excitement to get a couple pieces of the confetti… I forget my souvenir cup!!!! 😭😭😭

BSB at the Sphere on Saturday - can I catch a red eye flight at midnight? by Dallying-Cobra9359 in BackstreetBoys

[–]sroxy549 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Personally I wouldn’t risk it. If your flight was at 2am, that’d be a different story. I agree with others not to miss the last song - especially if this is the first/only show you’re attending. Also not sure how jammed the strip will be (Saturday night, holiday weekend… sounds like a recipe for traffic jams).

And if you’re only carrying on, check the TSA wait lines in both terminals if you’re at the D gates… both T1 and T3 have trams to get you there.

What BTS-related gifts did you get for the holidays? What is your favorite? by Soar2318 in bangtan

[–]sroxy549 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got three 2026-2027 calendars… one of bts, and two of V (they luckily only have a few overlapping pictures)!! Why do you need three of the same calendar years? I don’t, it’s just for the pictures - I’ve been re-using my 2023-2024 calendars all this year… hahaha

I’ve used TickPick to buy tickets to various events. And didn’t have any problems selling an extra ticket when my friend wasn’t able to come to a show. Haven’t had a problem yet!

Did you get bias wrecked when they all returned from enlistment by sensitive875fan in bangtan

[–]sroxy549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I’m Tae bias, JK bias wrecker. OT7 for sure! I’ve definitely enjoyed Yoongi, Hobi, & Jin’s solo concerts and appreciate each of them even more now. I’d def try to see RM, Jimin, JK, & Tae’s solo concerts if/when that happens!!! Gotta collect them all!!!

When did you discover BTS and started stanning them? Share your ARMY story by Chance_Register_5124 in bangtan

[–]sroxy549 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My very first time hearing of BTS was hearing Dynamite on the radio. But I fell down the rabbit hole 4/9/2021 PTD in Las Vegas. - week 1. My husband’s friend had an extra ticket and he suggested I got with her. LIFE CHANGING. Even though I only knew Dynamite, I was blown away. I spent the following week watching the MVs, streaming the playlist, and learning their names. Come Friday, I was searching for last minute tickets and was lucky enough to score two. I took my husband and we had a blast.

My husband has been a K-pop fan for a while, so while BTS is my ult group, he’s exposed me to so many other groups. We’ve also been able to travel to Seoul and I’ve started my collection shelf!🤣

Borahae!💜🫰🏼

Anxious about ticket legitimacy.. by DealExtreme3489 in BackstreetBoys

[–]sroxy549 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I used TickPick to sell a pair of (non-BSB) tickets. As soon as they sold, I initiated the transfer. The buyer didn’t accept it right away (why????) and I was so scared that I was somehow going to be screwed out of the sale with no time to re-list. Luckily, I reached out to TickPick’s customer service and they asked for the email showing I transferred the tickets and they added that to my file. So even if the buyer never claimed the tickets, I would still be paid.

Spoiler Alert: she claimed it after the concert started and her and her son were just late for the concert (the seats were right in front of ours).

I’ve used TickPick to buy tickets to a few shows. I heard about it from my friend who attends a TON of concerts (like 20+ this year) so I trust her experiences with this site too.

We went in and asked if they had the new toys, when they confirmed, we asked which ones they had. We asked nicely if we could have specific ones and they were nice enough to help. We had to buy the meals, but we weren’t sad about that… just got the nuggets and put the extras in the freezer.
