Yesterday I took a trip into NYC with my friend Ashley for PLJ’s Ultimate Tailgate Party. Ashley won the tickets through NASH*FM radio and asked if I wanted to join her. I met at her house around 1:30 and we had some lunch together. Her mom is so cute and made us sandwiches to go! Just what we needed. We got into the city at 3:30pm, just in time for the doors to open! We waited outside in line until we were let in…it was a cold day, let me tell you! The event was held at the Best Buy Theatre. When you got inside there were booths set up from the various radio stations with games and prizes. There was also a meet and greet with Tiki Barber. We got in line for the bean bag toss….well I didn’t get lucky there 😉 We threw some footballs at another stand and then made our way to the “meet and greet” line. I got to take a picture with Tiki and got a signed autograph for the hubby. The day was a lot of fun. After the meet and greet we wanted to find a good spot to wait for the Meghan Trainor and Nick Jonas concert, later that evening. We found a great spot, that not many people knew about….right by the stage. It was a raised platform and most people thought you needed special tickets to get up there. We got the ‘ok’ from the security guard to stay there, so we sat down and camped out. We took turns going to get food and drinks to keep us occupied. They had the Patriots vs Ravens game on the whole time for everyone to watch, considering it was a Tailgate Party. 😉
After the game ended, around 8:15 Meghan Trainor came out to perform. We were so happy with our, practically, front row seats. We could see everything! She even came over to our side of the stage and sang…and I am convinced she was pointing to Ashley and I! After her performance, Nick Jonas came out. He put on a great performance too! We stayed until his last song, “Jealous” and then bolted out of the theatre, not wanting to get caught in the crowds! We headed over to Port Authority, grabbed 2 chai lattes from Starbucks and caught the bus back home. It was a very fun day! Nice quality girl time…and seeing Nick Jonas didn’t hurt either 😉
