Waiting Again!
After visiting the 'Merch van and 2 caps and $50 later we emerged with shaded eyes from the glorious sunshine. We were once again outside a stadium a couple of hours before the show started but this time there was no clue given as to where we should wait or queue. There was yellow tape blocking all the entrances apart from one and seeing as this was a small arena, we thought they would likely just have one set of doors and one ramp open to allow entrance. As soon as the ramp started to gain some attention from waiting fans, we joined the queue. This was when my stomach took offence to the lovely wrap at lunch. It started with a small growl emanating from my belly but I ignored it. It grew to a growl and a pain. I thought it would pass like most stomach ailments do but it wasnt long until I made the decision that I would have to visit the bathroom in the arena once we got inside. My stomach had other ideas and informed me this was not going to fly. I had to find a bathroom now. My better half asked why I was looking around so much and I could only reply when I spotted a porta-loo in the car park with my name on it. Leaving her alone in a throng of people was not what I wanted but things had to happen. I ran through the car park and finally found relief. Once reunited with my lady I asked if anything had happened or if we had news when we would be let in. She informed me that an arena steward had popped out for a cigarette but then popped back in. We knew that RAW went live at 8 but knew they recorded superstars beforehand. We anticipated wed be let in around 6:30 but this came and went without event. Finally, at 7pm, we were walking up the ramp and through security. A guy in front of us with a rucksack was told he had to leave the line and have his bag searched elsewhere before entering. News which didnt sit well with himself and his 2 friends that had already cleared security and had to make there way into the stadium...
