Last month, I went to my first large tour since before COVID-19. A show that I had been waiting to see for just shy of two years. This was my first time at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City. Parking was easy (most likely due to getting there pretty early). They charged $20 to park in regular parking, which I didn't see anywhere on their site. As I didn't have cash on me, I was glad that they accept credit card for this. Exiting was also a breeze. I'm so used to horrible experiences when leaving a large show, so it was nice to get out within a few minutes.
Inside the venue, I went down to the floor and checked into the PIT section. Got a wristband, which made entering and exiting that area convenient. The venue is pretty standard to most of its kind, so nothing really to report on there.
What I did experience, which I'll never forget, was how quickly security helped me out of the pit when I was close to passing out (a poor combo of not drinking enough/eating enough that day, standing for quite a few hours, and flames being blasted from one of the bands' sets). I wasn't feeling well as the second song was starting, sat down, and someone asked me if I was okay. When I replied "No", he got security's attention, who helped out within a minute or two. They brought me over to the first aid tent, and the staff there was also great. A couple of glasses of water, and a Gatorade later, I was feeling better, and able to see the rest of the show. I really am grateful for the help of those there as I was at the show by myself. They really took care of me, so if you are reading this, and were the security and first aid staff at the Hella Mega Tour who helped me out, I appreciate you!
