It appears that Sam Mac is about to ruffle some feathers in the hospitality industry. The Sunrise weatherman turned investigative journalist…
Taylor Swift fans were left fuming after being sold ‘restricted view’ tickets to her Liverpool Eras gig on Thursday, sharing pictures on social media.
On Thursday, the popstar, 34, hailed the commitment of thousands of fans who braved the rain to watch her perform the first of three gigs at Anfield Stadium for the 100th show of her Eras Tour.
The American superstar performed in front of a 53,000-strong crowd at the Liverpool FC stadium – breaking the all-time attendance record for the arena.
However, not all fans were happy with their seats for the show, taking to social media to complain about their restricted view.
One attendee, who posts under the handle @shugartickz, shared a shocking photo of their view on X (formerly Twitter), penning: ‘Some view that,’ alongside two laughing emojis and a sick emoji.

One fan, who paid £60 for their ticket, could see the diamond walkway that Taylor spends some of the show on, but the main stage itself was completely blocked from sight
The snap, taken from their seat, showed what they could see from the top corner of the area, behind the actual stage.
The fan, who paid £60 for their ticket, could see the diamond walkway that Taylor spends some of the show on, but the main stage itself was completely blocked from sight.
Social media users slammed the venue for selling the tickets, penning:
‘What’s the point in going?’
‘How much they charging for that?!’
‘Should be illegal that ‘view ‘imagine that.’
‘Could say you were backstage.’
‘This makes me feel so much better now at having to sell mine last night.’

Another fan shared their own experience, writing: ‘Don’t remember buying restricted view? So angry #LiverpoolTStheErasTour’
‘Scandalous.’
‘No point going I’d ask for a refund.’
‘That is criminal.’
‘May as well stay at home.’
‘Disney plus for two years would’ve been cheaper and you can actually watch the concert!!!’
‘How is that even possible to be behind the stage.’
Another disappointed fan shared their own experience, writing: ‘Don’t remember buying restricted view? So angry #LiverpoolTStheErasTour.’
They posted a picture of their lower-bowl view which was obstructed by tents and technical equipment.
Meanwhile, a third fan who was left frustrated by their poor view of the concert posted a video, which quickly amassed over half a million views.
Taylor Swift fan Zella – who paid £660 to sit in VIP was left unhappy after her view was blocked by a tent
However the duo were not disappointed as they were moved to even better seats so they could see their idol in action (pictured: Zella and a friend)
Zella complained about her obstructed view after spending an eye-watering £660 on VIP seats.
‘Paid £660 for VIP seats and this is our view. We asked and they won’t move us,’ she penned.
‘Actually going to cry.’
Fellow Taylor Swift supporters advised her to ask again, claiming she would have to be moved if she did not have restricted view tickets.
According to Zella, she had already made the attempt however the entire show was sold out meaning there was nowhere to move her to.
But all ended well for the super fan as she revealed she and a friend were given even better seats – so they could clearly see the superstar in action.
‘Thank you to everyone for the support and kindness! We had an amazing time in the end,’ she shared.
MailOnline have contacted Ticketmaster and Anfield for comment, although it’s not clear if a third party sold the tickets in question.
