Taylor Swift had to play more than 900 stadium shows to meet ticket demand for her “Eras Tour,” which led to a surreal scene outside Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Square this weekend.
The stadium itself has a capacity of about 70,000 concerts, and Swift plays three concerts at the venue over the course of the weekend. However, thousands of Swifties who were locked out of tickets still turned out and participated in her performances from off the field, singing and dancing for the duration of her three-hour performance.
“Beatlesmania reincarnated as Swiftmania,” one Twitter user wrote He said In response to the scene outside Link. “If one day all Swifties rallied they could overturn the whole country,” another person said sarcastic. See the footage for yourself below.
