The second installment. Faith Hill and Tim McGraw performed together. Seal, Vanessa Williams and Babyface were also on hand, along with a show closing performance from Elton John. My memory of this event was spotty, but it was the rowdy upper deck crowd that really stuck out.
We were trying to make our attendance an annual event, but it was hard to sit in the bleachers with the white trash eating popcorn and hotdogs. It was more like a minor league hockey game than a gala event. At the time, we couldn’t afford better seats. The next year, we did indeed, get seats in the loge section, but my grandfather passed away that week and I gave my ticket away.
