Okay, so I'm not Celine's biggest fan or anything, but my best friend Sally definitely is. I do enjoy her music and I think I've been listening to her music since I was like ten. So for her birthday Sally's hubby bought two tickets to the Celine Dion concert which was supposed to be in October. Well, Chad told her she could take anybody she wanted but it had to be somebody that would enjoy the concert as much as her. So I was the obvious choice, one, because I'm her best friend, and two, because I think I'm pretty much the only other person she knows that likes Celine Dion. So, when the concert was postponed back in October, we were bummed to find out it wasn't going to be until February. Yay when it got rescheduled, yet again, for December 18. So, finally the day had come, and Sally was pumped. We were both excited, Cory dropped us off at the Target Center about 10 minutes before it was supposed to start, and the whole atrium was packed with crazy ladies waiting to see Celine. When we finally got up to the entrance, the guy scanned our tickets and told us they put a spotlight in our seats so we had to go back to the ticket booth to get different seats!! What?? "You mean we have to go all the way back and then wait again to get back in here??" So we hustled over to the ticket booth. The lady told us we had two options: Section 130 (we were originally in 231), or FLOOR SEATS!!! Holy Shit!! Sally freaked out! Obviously we took the floor seats. These were $1600 seats... no joke! They were in the tenth row!!! Sally started having a panic attack. She was hyperventilating, so being a labor nurse, I talked her down, got her to breathe, and tried to calm her down. Oh my gosh! She was still shaking and breathing kind of hard when we got to our seats and she kept saying, "I can't believe I'm only ten rows away from
her!!" And then, she came out to the stage from behind us and was literally like twenty feet away. I thought Sally was going to pass out and I was going to have to do CPR. Thank God she didn't and we made it through the best concert I think I've ever been to. We got amazing pictures, some video, and just most importantly, an awesome experience that Sally will never ever forget! Okay, that's my story, now for the pictures....
























And now the videos...
