BEST I'm with The Blogger Moment EVER

As noted previously, Best Summer Evah is now an award winning blog… or if you want to be technical…. a prize winning blog. That's right, through her kickass post, Emmmm won tickets to go see Tea Leaf Green and Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers.

So, Mike from Wolftrap Live was contacted and arrangements were made to pick up the tickets at the will call window by the Wolftrap gate. We roll up to Wolftrap, and immediately go to the wrong window to pick up the tickets. After being pointed to the correct window, Emmmm approaches and states her last name.

They don't have her tickets.

She is asked for a confirmation number.

She doesn't have one. She's the blog contest winner.

Immediately, a hush goes through the ticket booth… it's the blog winner…what should we do? Where do we send her? She wrote about us..as the line behind us grows. Eventually we are pointed to the press office, which is in a restricted area. Completely disregarding the signs that state "authorized personnel only", Emmmm and I barge into the press office and meet Mike, one of the Wolftrap Live bloggers.

As Emmmm is introduced to other staff in the office I realize something. My roommate has turned from Emmmm to Emmmm, The Blogger.

Mike hands her the tickets in an envelope marked "Blogger" and yet again congratulates Emmmm, The Blogger on her award winning post. From the press office, we head directly towards the stage… a route which does not take us through the main gate. We are stopped by a security guard who asks us for identification.

Emmmm states she is The Blogger.

Her name is confirmed on a list. She is The Blogger. Again, she is congratulated.

Anyway, long story short, the seats that Emmmm had won were absolutely amazing - about 20 rows back and in the center and the show was really cool as well. Sometimes it's good to be The Blogger.
