Garth Encounters
rainbow line

I live in Las Vegas and Garth came here last summer (1998). I spent all day in line for tickets and ended up far from the stage, (first balcony).

The day of the show I arrived at the stadium early and watched silently as the first and second rows I had so badly wanted to sit in got filled up. In desperation I ran to a security guard and begged him to get a closer seat, he looked at me as if I was crazy and laughed. I said, "Please I'm a big fan" a voice from behind said "How big of a fan?" I turned to see a crew member standing behind me. Five minutes before show time I got the last front row seat in the show. I felt like a princess as a security guard escorted me down to the stage.

As Garth sang "Fever" that night I felt water shower me (from the water bottles Garth sprays the audience with). I looked up and that's when our eyes met, Dreams do come true.....
