I attended my first Justin Bieber concert in the fall of 2010 on the My World Tour. My second time seeing him was in the fall of 2012 on the Believe Tour. Once I heard that he was adding a second leg to the Believe Tour, I couldn’t wait to get tickets. I saw that he was going to be in Atlanta and that it would be his last show in the U.S. I am from Kentucky and the drive to Atlanta is around 8 hours, but my mom knows how big of a fan I am, even though I am 22 years old. It just so happened that my mom has a friend that works at Philips Arena. She messaged him about getting us tickets and he was very happy to do so. Immediately I was so excited. I found out I would be going in December and the concert was not until August, so obviously it was a very long 8 months. My mom and I watched Justin’s movie ‘Never Say Never’ so many times this winter just to keep my spirits up. Before each of my surgeries, I listened to his music, especially ‘Pray,’ and that helped to calm my nerves. Being able to attend his concert after being so sick only made it that much more special! But finally, the day was here! My best friend who I had gone to the other two concerts with came with my mom and me as well. We drove half way Friday night and the made our way to Atlanta the day of the concert. As you would imagine, the day seemed to drag on and on because we were so anxious. We had Row A tickets in the middle section of the lower arena, so we were super excited about that. All three of us were finally ready for the concert as my friend and I wore our shirts that said, “No one is immune to Bieber Fever” and my mom had on her purple shirt. I kept thinking in the back of my mind that maybe… just maybe my mom’s friend could get us backstage or something but he never mentioned it to us so I decided not to get my hopes up. Now that it was 2 hours before the concert, I thought there was no possible way and had given up. We were literally on our way to the arena from our hotel when my mom got a call from her friend that said, “Hey! So do you think the girls would want to meet Justin?” Is that even a serious question? Who would ever say no to that question? We freaked out and started running towards the arena. We got to the doors and there was a lady waiting there for us with 3 meet and greet passes. I literally could not believe it. We were about to meet Justin! We got taken back to a lounge with only two other families. We had to wait for maybe over an hour before we were finally in the line with hundreds of other girls! When it was finally my turn, the curtain opened, and there he was! Standing there smiling as I walked towards him, with his arms open wide for me to give him a hug. I said, “Its so nice to meet you!” And he said “Aw it’s nice to meet you too!” He then put his arm around me and we took the picture. I was allowed to stand there as my mom and my best friend had their pictures taken as well. My mom asked him, “How are you today, sweetie?” And he replied “I’m good ma’am, how are you?” We could not believe how incredibly sweet he was. He exceeded our expectations in every way possible. Thank you so much, Justin! This is a day we will never forget! -Allison Read more here: I attended my first Justin Bieber concert in the fall of 2010 on…
