Rollin' VIP style!

Saturday, Casey and I got to experience what it’s like to be a VIP. My manager, Wendy, was able to get me tickets to the Jonas Brothers concert, but not just any tickets, LUXURY SUITE tickets. Wendy is good friends with the VP of Food & Beverage for the stadium so we were in her personal suite. We knew this would be our only shot at going to a suite in the new Texas Stadium so we were very excited. We even had a VIP parking pass with our own designated spot! When we pulled up to the parking lot, they scanned our parking pass and then shouted to one another, “Spot 229!” then we went around a barricade and were literally 20 ft. from the stadium (see picture below). The stadium looked gorgeous inside. All of the employees were wearing suits and ties, the floor was marble, and there were chandeliers. We found our suite and let me tell you, it was NICE. We had a great view and there was more food than you could imagine. They had chicken fingers, hot dogs, fajitas, jumbo shrimp, crackers, cheese, popcorn, and passed our fresh pizza. The food that Casey and I both gave 2 thumbs up was the truffled mac and cheese. It was easily the best mac and cheese I have ever had. Even our beverages were free! I had some wine and Casey had a couple beers (which are typically $8 at the stadium). The seats in the suite were leather and reclined! The suite even has a private bathroom which anyone that’s ever been to a large stadium can appreciate. Once the Jo-Bros came on, we learned something, you don’t go to a Jo-Bro concert to hear them sing, you go to scream your head off. We could barely hear ourselves talk. The fans were insane. So after a few songs, we decided to tour the rest of the stadium. This was when we realized that the whole stadium was not like what we experienced. Once you pass through the doors to the rest of the stadium its very loud (the VIP area has glass doors all around it so once you pass to the concession area, its quite), the floor is the typical concrete with cinder block walls, no one is wearing a suite and tie, and the concession stands looks like any other (not like the huge bars with bartenders in the VIP area). Don’t get me wrong though, it’s a brand new stadium so it’s still very clean and nice. Casey and I had an AMAZING time and all I know is that it will be tough to go back to that stadium any other way besides VIP.

This pic was taken from my car. This is how close we parked to the stadium!
