A die-hard fan miraculously scored a ticket to Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour concert after an act of goodwill by a punter who had to leave the concert early.
In a video shared on TikTok, one of the thousands of ticketless fans waiting outside the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) managed to get into the concert thanks to the friendly Swiftie.
The short clip shows stunned fans watching the concert-goer send the fan the ticket, before they hug each other and the woman runs into the venue.
According to comments, the exchange occurred toward the end of the three-hour concert during the show’s final Midnight Era.
‘Vigilante S**t’ can be heard in the background.

With three shows scheduled for Melbourne this weekend, thousands of fans who missed out on tickets gathered outside the MCG singing and dancing to Swift’s hits.
The international trend has earned the term ‘Taylor-gating’, despite warnings from the MCG urging fans to attend the venue only if they have tickets.
Ahead of the February 6 concert, the venue said there would be “no activations” at Yarra Park or live screenings of the show, and reminded fans of the rules against drinking and setting up tents, marquees or barbecues.
Swift mania is coming to Sydney next weekend, with the pop star performing four shows from Friday 23 February to Monday 26 February.
