Consequence nods at Swift’s swift response to fans who waited on the hillside, she describes the ordeal with “We are lucky enough to get to play this show for 74,000 beautiful people in this stadium, and if the reports are correct, about 50,000 beautiful people outside the stadium [..] Thank you for coming to ‘The Eras Tour,’ whether you’re in the stadium or outside of the stadium. We are so lucky to be here with you. And this is actually a really special night, because this is our last show in Germany. I cannot express to you how wonderful the German crowds have been to us over the last few weeks. We are so sad to be leaving you but we will be back, we will be back to see you.”
Even when faced with the challenge of not securing tickets, the creative spirit and enthusiasm of the Swifties transformed a potential setback into a memorable experience.
