One of my closest friends surprised me with an experience I am still reeling over.

I MET THE BACKSTREET BOYS!!

We attended our first concert, replete with bright poster board signs and donning glowsticks in eighth grade and have been hardcore fans ever since. I've seen every STL show, along with a girls weekend (plus infant Owen) concert during their  Vegas residency at Planet Hollywood #bsb4life.

Originally slated to attend the concert and AJ's concert afterwards at Ballpark Village, Angie stealthy swapped our concert tickets for stage-side seats along with scoring our VIP meet and greet passes, then sent me a lovely card (above) to tell me. I had to read it three times before I believed it! 

Filing this under one of my favorite experiences, ever.
