As the jowls of capitalism sink closer to the Bunion headquarters as winter draws to a close, the world trembles in fear and waits in anticipation. The only alleviating salve may be Taylor Swift’s upcoming concert… in Santa Clara’s Levi’s Stadium! On the fateful 15th of November, we pushed aside crumbling tests and even more crumbling teachers to dig into the goldmine, hosted by Ticketmaster.

From big Swiftie Reagan Baik, “It was terrible. First they had this presale for people who had mastercards… and none of us got it. We had to buy them from scalpers! And they were like eight times the price.”
 
Amber Wu said with tears dripping into her mouth “It was… a war zone”. A war zone it was indeed. As The 1975 said: “The war has been incited, and guess what? You’re all invited”
