Garth Brooks fans on what it means to get a ticket to one of his shows in September
'I've been a superfan since I was little and this is the first time I'll get to see Garth Brooks'

Caroline Duke and her cardboard cut out of Garth Brooks.

Caroline Duke was up all night on Wednesday preparing to jump into the virtual queue. After experiencing the crushing heartbreak of 2014, she was determined to get her hands on tickets for this autumn's Garth Brooks gigs, and she did. She'll be attending three nights of the singer's five-night run at Croke Park next September. 

"It feels like a dream," she says. "I had three tickets for the last one - the opening night, the middle night and the closing night, so the fact that I have three tickets to this one is unreal." A true superfan, Duke has loved Garth Brooks for as long as she can remember.
