EPIC.


Wow. I am still in shock. Got to Lexington, Kentucky at 1:30 pm and by 7 pm I was in the 5th row of Kenny Chesney's Goin' Coastal Tour at Rupp Arena, which just so happens to be across the street from my apartment. So let me back up a bit...


As we were driving to my apartment, we saw a sign for Kenny and "tickets still available." After going to Target, a late lunch, and unpacking I called the box office. They say they don't have any lower seats available at this time but to go to the box office before the show to check it out. 


Disclaimer: Meredith WILL NOT sit in nosebleed seats EVER because she will hyperventilate and cry. Reference: Brad Paisley, Mohegan Sun, Nov. 2010 (sorry roomies!) 


6:45 PM: Walked over, in jeans, rockin a QU intramural t-shirt, no make-up, no camera and flip flops because I thought there was no way we are getting tickets. The lady at the ticket office said they just released floor seats... $75. UMMM YES!!! So we missed some of Uncle Kracker, made it in time to Billy Currington, who was AWESOME, and Kenny was unbelievable as usual. Needless to say I am grateful for the invention of phone cameras....


It was an amazing showww. Oh, and did I mention George Jones came out?! He sang "I don't need your  rocking chair" and "He stopped loving her today" with Kenny! Apparently Kenny didn't know about it. It was sickkk. 

Icing on the cake: During "She thinks my tractor's sexy" he threw me his towel. And it's not like I wrestled with people to get it..it was TO me

During Kenny's Encore, "Boys of Fall" he talked about the simple things in life. Family, Friends, God, Love, and Sports. Cherish the simple things in your life today. :) The concert was fabulous, just me, my mom, no fuss, being ourselves and enjoying the music. 


What a way to kick off Lexington... Not sure if I can top this one but thanks for reading and we will see what unfolds here :) 


CONGRATULATIONS QU MAT's & DPT's!! So proud!!
