Last night was my official end to summer and I thought it was only fair to end the summer of 2016 at the Summer Sixteen Tour with Drake and Future. Now when I woke up that morning and got ready for the day I had no idea what was about to go down. I imagined this to be just like any other concert I have been to, but it was not the same. It was a night of being surrounded by greatness.
I do have to say, the only annoying thing about the night was the fact the tickets said the show started at 6:30 but they did not even open the doors until 6 and the show started around an hour later. I can say the first three openers were good but they were also a little bit annoying, I had higher expectations. Also why did they need three openers???
Drake came out first which was something I was not expecting, but I was totally hyped about. About thirty minutes into the beginning of Drakes set a man walked up to me, handed me two pieces of paper and just casually walked away like it was no big deal. I look down at the papers and they are two tickets for the floor. This was what I thought was the best thing to happen all night, free floor seats!!! (Pay it forward guys) I get down to floor and Drake was actually five feet in front of me and I am still unsure about how I was able to maintain myself.
The night goes on and he starts singing 'Forever' which is one of my all time favorites. Then out of no where Eminem pops up on stage and everyone lost it. I just watched Drake share the stage with the best rapper of all time. I am currently writing about this the next night and honestly, I am more in awe that I got to see Eminem rap for 30 seconds than I am about watching Drake rap for roughly three hours.
Nothing good happened after the show considering the fact it took me almost an hour to get out of the parking garage and the fact I popped a tire on the way home but hey, I stood in the presence of greatness. I got more than what I was hoping for.
