The world has been in an uproar since Beyoncé announced her world tour, and the Beyhive is going the extra mile to score tickets.
The fan base is using the crowdfunding website, GoFundMe, to ask family, friends, and others to give them money to help them purchase a ticket for the tour, TMZ reported.
The gag is even if they raise enough money, it doesn’t secure the purchase of a ticket. But fans aren’t discouraged by that, and they’re keeping it real on what they plan to use the money for. One fan wrote: “…. my dying wish to see a beyonce in August. No real sad story here but I work a job with minimal pay and I can’t afford the ticket’s unless I skip rent and my car payment and if I do that I won’t have a place to get dressed or a ride to get there. If it helps my ankles are swollen and my feet hurt like crazy but I still go to work anyway so I can support myself and my family but now I need something nice done for me. Just a simple dollar helps. Thanks guys.”
While another posted on GoFundMe: “I thought that if a white man could raise tens of thousands of dollars for ranch dressing why can’t I raise at least 500 bucks for Beyoncé tickets. This is literally a once in a lifetime experience for anyone who gets the chance to experience Club Renaissance in the best way. I don’t want to choose between bills and Beyoncé so I felt like this would be an appropriate way to raise money. This is a long shot but here it goes. If I can go and see her this year in July I would have truly lived and know that I was here.”
The outpouring for financial support is a bit humorous, but you can’t knock ‘em for trying. Some have raised a few hundred bucks and some haven’t raised anything.
Pre-sale in the UK has already began and presale in the U.S. will start next week.
