It was a stampede 😰

(which caught me off guard) but yea they went on there way somewhere and i wanted to give them space (also since i was with family and we had to go) i have more videos of them and me freaking out but it reveals there location so i’ll post after they leave van
Ulgo sipji ana but at the same time i do.. yo my luck is insane cuz i was fr sitting there drinking when bam like i was in shock at first. I can’t believe i saw seventeen on my second at vancouver. I wasn’t even here for the concert. I didnt even say anything cause literally no fans where there and they seemed busy. I wish i said hi ;(
