Beyoncé Fan Demands $700 Refund After ‘Cowboy Carter Tour’ Shocker

Not everybody left Beyoncé‘s present feeling on high of the world.

One annoyed fan is talking out after what they name “the worst live performance expertise of my life,” claiming they have been left fully blindsided, and practically $700 lighter, throughout Beyoncé’s current present at SoFi Stadium.

From distorted sound to shockingly unhealthy seating, the attendee says all the pieces that would go flawed, did.

“It turned out to be a waste of cash,” the fan mentioned in a Daily Mail report, noting that whereas others snagged low-cost seats within the nosebleeds “for the same price as a McDonald’s meal,” they opted for pricier seats within the first elevation, simply above the ground, for a greater view of the celebrity’s blockbuster stage.

At $350 per ticket, the fan thought they have been investing in a once-in-a-lifetime experience. “I needed to be near the motion and had been suggested that these could be higher than flooring seats as a result of I would get an incredible view of Bey’s blockbuster stage manufacturing,” they mentioned.

“I used to be assured I would discovered two of the perfect seats in the home,” they defined, regardless of being tempted to get one thing cheaper that was extra of their price range. “I could not consider that I would spent $700 for me and my buddy to see Bey dwell, however she is probably the most awarded artist in Grammy historical past and has been lauded as the best performer to ever grace the stage.”

However the pleasure shortly turned to disappointment the second the present started.

As Beyoncé kicked issues off with “American Requiem,” an usher led the fan to their seat, and the view was something however flawless.

“Not solely was there gigantic scaffolding in entrance of me blocking half the stage, proper subsequent to it was some sort of enormous box-shaped construction with individuals on high that blocked one other chunk of my view,” the fan recalled of their Every day Mail piece. “Certainly there was some mistake?”

Regardless of spending hours researching the part on Ticketmaster and third-party websites, even scouring live performance photographs and customer reviews to make sure the view could be unobstructed, the attendee mentioned there was no warning about blocked sightlines.

“I frantically checked my tickets once more to see if there had been some point out of an obstructed view that I would missed, [but] there wasn’t,” they added. “I felt fully bamboozled.”

The fan mentioned they’ve attended loads of live shows earlier than and have been shocked there was no disclaimer. “They all the time warn you about obstructed views and the ticket worth normally displays that,” they mentioned.

Whereas Beyoncé’s group tried to make up for it by mounting a TV display screen to the again of the field, it didn’t assist a lot.

“I’d simply traveled an hour (don’t even ask me how a lot the Uber price!) and spent $700 for me and my buddy to look at Beyoncé on a TV that was smaller than the screens some individuals have of their house theatres,” the fan fumed.

Including insult to harm? Half the seats of their “sold-out” part have been immediately empty.

“Apparently, individuals who had arrived early had complained and have been moved,” the fan mentioned. “I attempted to do the identical and requested a staffer, nevertheless it was so loud we may barely talk. She directed me downstairs, however then the ground employees wouldn’t allow us to by.”

However the chaos did not cease there.

“The stadium audio system have been pointed immediately at our part, making every one among Beyoncé’s hits deafeningly loud and distorted,” they added. “I’m not attempting to sound just like the quintessential Karen that complains that the live performance is just too noisy, however the audio from my seat was so blown out that Bey seemed like she was wailing right into a toddler’s plastic karaoke machine at full blast.”

And simply once they thought issues couldn’t worsen, cue the freezing air-con.

“I’d’ve been hotter watching the present in an igloo,” the fan joked. “I’m positive the sound high quality could be higher, too.”

Regardless of the chaos, the attendees determined to cease combating and simply attempt to benefit from the present from what they dubbed “the dreaded corral.” However by then, the harm was completed.
