This Woman Hilariously Missed A Beyoncé Concert By Going On The Wrong Day
Note to self when going to concerts: Check the date, especially if it's Beyoncé, because you might not get another chance to see the queen in person.
Unfortunately, according to BuzzFeed News, a 34-year-old woman named Tammy forgot this crucial little detail when she tried to see a Beyoncé show in London with her son and husband.
Queen Bey was playing shows on Saturday and Sunday in London's Wembley Stadium for The Formation World Tour.
According to BuzzFeed, Tammy, a South African photographer, has been living in the United Kingdom for about seven years and bought the tickets for $65 a piece.
It was only on her way to the stadium that Tammy opened up her Ticketmaster app to check her tickets and discovered an awful truth: She had bought tickets for Saturday's show, which had already come and gone.
She told BuzzFeed,
It said only past events and I saw it said Saturday and realized the show was over and we couldn't go anymore. I kept on thinking that it might be a mistake and maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing.
But, Tammy wasn't wrong; she came on the wrong day.
She tried to resolve the situation with Ticketmaster to no avail, and it seems an attempt to buy other tickets fell through.
@Beyonce @TicketmasterUK any tickets left whatsoever? — Tammy (@Tammyrazzi) July 3, 2016
@Nay_WasHERE @TicketmasterUK @Beyonce @wembleystadium already did... They said there's nothing they can do. — Tammy (@Tammyrazzi) July 3, 2016
But, Tammy's distress didn't stop Twitter from making all kinds of jokes about getting in formation and resolving the problem by fixing her phone.

But eventually, Tammy saw the humorous side and seemingly moved past her error with her love for Beyoncé intact.
Sounds like that husband's a keeper. Anyway, Tammy and concertgoers everywhere, make sure you check the date on your tickets next time or else you just might miss Beyoncé!
