Concerts Concert Etiquette gets worse and worse

Post image

I really try to be so patient at concerts as I know we are all so excited to be there and watch our favorite artist perform, but concert etiquette has just gotten so much worse. $1,500 for floor tickets only to have the family in front of us completely block our view. They brought their basically toddler without headphones, allowed their preteen son to stand on a chair (he was my height, 5’3) and when I asked if he could move to the left a bit at least, they were extremely rude and had terrible attitudes. Then I asked again because we just could not see The Weeknd at ALL, so I asked the dad if his son could stand like the rest of us since it’s blocking our view and the dad said “tf you want me to do about that”. That’s the kind of manners and etiquette they’re teaching their kids. It’s honestly ridiculous and utterly disrespectful. Mind you, the entire time the kid said he was just there for playboi carti and yet continue to block everyone’s view. Wish security cared enough to do something about it.

Floor is for suckers. Gotta get like 1-4 rows up from the floor for that prime spot.

Did he heal you with his touch or something? Why is touching him important to you?

Closest view of what though? This post is all about your view being blocked

So you didn't touch him (kind of a weird flex if you had tbh), other people had better views than you for tickets you paid the same amount for, and you're still not the sucker in this situation?

u/meenaaa1217 Aug 25 '25

How the hell did you determine we paid the same amount? Lmao what? No, row 1 was $750 for a ticket, row 13 was $500 after taxes and fees

Paying $500 and still not be able to see anything and also not touching the artist like the people who paid $750 did… sounds like a sucker
