It's been a Cruel Summer for dedicated Swifties in Buenos Aires, who have been camping in tents for five months to secure front row spots at the upcoming Eras Tour concerts – taking place tomorrow.
They have organised themselves into four tents, using a spreadsheet to track their presence.
The longer they stay in the tents, the better their chances of being at the front of the line when Ms. Swift performs.
They have dealt with public criticism, rowdy soccer fans, and the challenges of sleeping rough on concrete.
Despite their dedication, the fans haven’t forgotten their responsibilities, creating a schedule that fits around their work and college classes.
Incentives and rules have been established, such as counting time during a storm as double hours, and mandatory monthly sleepovers to keep their spot.
Some people have questioned the fans' dedication and hygiene, often shouting insults at them.
Safety concerns have also arisen, especially during soccer matches, but the police generally protect the tents.
Other Swifties even offer to wait in line for others for a fee, helping fans from distant provinces secure their spots.
While their dedication may seem extreme to some, these fans are determined to have the best concert experience possible.
