Seven Hundred and Fifteenth Adventure Journey
Later, based on the fragments of the Cavaliers' memories, they pieced together the picture of the "Departure" Washington Sunday game, and you can feel the madness behind it with just a few strokes.
"... people are everywhere, even crowded to the point where you can't breathe..."
"The sunset at the edge of the sky is like a raging flame, and you can even feel the air start to distort, making people wonder if they have returned to the Indio Desert..."
"...the voices are all voices, even my own voice is so noisy that it is swallowed up."
"I don't know how many people there are. I just remember that both sides of the road turning from the main street into the parking lot are already full of people."
"Ask for tickets! Everyone is asking for tickets! God, I also saw a fan from New York asking for tickets, haha, when will music lovers in Washington be able to stand tall in front of New York?"
"I just remember the long queue in front of the portable toilet, God, I've never seen a concert scene so crowded."
"...I heard from the on-site staff that people have been coming to the site to ask about tickets since eight o'clock in the morning."
Originally, the Sunday show in Washington was an extra show. The extra show was conceived in the fanatic calls. In a short period of time, all the tickets for the extra show were sold out, which proved the support of the fans. But unexpectedly, the extra show When it really came, Verizon Center was once again hit by a turbulent crowd.
people. Everyone.
Crowds of people.
Don't forget that the Verizon Center is only a venue with a capacity of 10,000 people, and now there are an additional 2,000 people. The limited space of the venue is clearer and the vastness and madness of the crowd are more strongly felt.
People began to appear one after another in the early morning, and at six o'clock in the afternoon—about two hours before the concert started, the crowd reached a new peak, and more than 15,000 people surrounded the venue. The corners are tightly packed.
It even caused traffic jams.
The urban traffic police did not expect such a situation at all. An ordinary concert was blocked by the road leading to the parking lot due to the turbulent crowd, which eventually affected the surrounding traffic conditions and forced the traffic police to dispatch urgently to evacuate the scene.
Even the knights are at a loss: what is going on?
"Ask for votes" means "what's going on".
In less than thirty-six hours, the discussion topics at the "Departure" Washington session created an unimaginably huge heat wave on social networking platforms.
As a result, a large number of curious melon eaters arrived at Verizon Center, trying to ask for tickets on the spot—same as Saturday, but several times more crazy than Saturday.
buzz buzz.
buzz buzz.
The entire Verizon Center was surrounded by bustling crowds, so that the traffic on the main road was completely paralyzed. It's not that there was a "hundred thousand besieged city" grand occasion, but that the relevant departments didn't expect the one-day king's concert to reach such a level, and they were not prepared enough, so they were in a hurry.
The drivers on the roads in the city’s traffic jam have different attitudes. One big truck driver joked with a smile, “What’s the matter? Could it be that the soul of Michael Jackson held a concert?” The audience roared with laughter.
The sea of people gathered in the Verizon Center, how many are spectators who bought tickets, how many came to beg for tickets, and how many were melon-eating people who passed by and couldn’t be missed; Successful ones have been unable to be verified, it is just chaos.
Obviously, whether it was the king or the knights, it was the first time they encountered such a situation, and they were completely unprepared, so that they were in a hurry.
However, the turbulent crowd gathered after the concert was clearly visible. More than 2,000 spectators were waiting at the back door of Verizon Center, waiting for the King of the Day to appear on the stage, and screamed with the most enthusiasm, madness and heartiness And cheers for tonight's heroes.
Afterwards, more than 300 spectators followed One Day King back to the hotel where he was staying, and followed the band members like a shadow, continuing the excitement of the concert all the way.
That night, calls for "a second extra game" spread across major social networks. At first, they just called for another game in Washington, but slowly, audiences in other cities who could not buy tickets also They joined in one after another, appealing to the king for a day to increase the performance venue——
Even those black fans are no exception, they also look forward to being able to arrive at the scene to watch the concert in person, and then openly and honestly say "the king for a day is not worthy of the name".
Nobody, not even Atlantic Records, thought of it.
The "Departure" tour has just started, and there have been two calls for extra performances, which once again made people clearly feel the rising momentum of the King of the Day.
Although moved, the king couldn't change the schedule after all, and the second extra game in Washington still didn't take place.
For this reason, Maxim uploaded an eloquent text on Twitter, apologized to the fans, and issued an invitation, "You are welcome to join us for other concerts. After all, it is just beginning now."
It is precisely because of Maxim's warm invitation that a large number of knights really responded to the call and followed the king for a day on the tour.
Washington is just the beginning.

Just a few months ago, for music lovers, the Coachella Music Festival was Neverland, where the king of the day left his own legend; No matter how large the crowd is, it is limited after all, and countless people have missed that experience.
Now, King One Day "set off" again, looking for the Neverland beside everyone.
