This one time in Las Vegas 1997 at the first ever PopMart show, I got tiddly wasted and made my way down to the front. The security guards were real sweet and carried me to the front. I even mingled with the people in the VIP section...who they were I will never know.
This other time in Seattle December 1997, as I was walking to the show this couple came up to me and offered me a floor seat, one of their parties couldn't make it so she just sold it to me for ticket price (no scalpers!!!). I had a floor seat but since I'm so short and tiny, everyone blocked my view and kept stomping all over me so I snuck up as far as I can, and what do you know, people did not notice me, or mind, moving to the very front. Bono even jumped into the crowd and held his guitar up, and the crowd stampeded forward-almost smothering me to death, I got to reach out and touch the hem of his jacket. Some nice guy caught me and put me back on my chair. I never did quite catch my breath and ever since, my heart has not beaten a regular beat.
"I love you, Bono!"
Bono, "I love you too."
