She’s Pretty Sure A Man Almost Abducted Her Before She Met Up With Her Sister To Go To A Concert
These days, it’s not surprising to see young fans camping and lining up outside a venue before a popular artist has a concert there.
Fans with pit or general admission orchestra tickets are determined to make it to the very front row, so they often sleep on the street to make sure they’re first in line.
While waiting for a concert she had been looking forward to for a long time, a woman had a sketchy encounter with a man that has had her freaked out ever since.
It was 2019, and she was going to see the band Twenty One Pilots in Oklahoma City with her sister. She was 20-years-old at the time and a huge fan of the band.
Knowing that they’d want to be as close to the stage as possible, she arrived at the venue with her sister in the wee hours of the morning. At around 5:00 AM, she had to move her car to a different parking spot.
After parking at a Sonic restaurant about a mile away from the venue, she began walking back with all of her stuff.
On her walk, she noticed an alleyway that would work as a shortcut. Since it was morning and light outside, she figured she would be safe. That is until she noticed a man sitting in the alleyway behind a bar.
He was thin, lanky, and looked to be about 40-years-old. As she approached him, he began asking her all sorts of questions.
Without realizing her mistake, she blurted out that she was going to the concert. His questions started getting weirder, and he eventually asked her if she would want any drugs from him.

She continued to talk down the alley, trying to get rid of him, but he kept on following her. When she thought she was finally rid of him, she would hear his footsteps.
It wasn’t long before she realized that he wouldn’t stop stalking her and that he could very well harm her.
After making it out of the alleyway, she spotted a man getting out of his house and ran to him for help.
“I hurried up to the man and remember asking him if he could help me because I was scared and felt unsafe because there was someone following me,” she recalls.
“At this point, the scrawny man from the alley had gained on me and was a few feet away from us.”
The man from the alley started lying to the stranger, saying that he was helping her and not to pay any mind to her.
Shockingly, the man in the house told her that he couldn’t help and shut the door on her. Can you believe that?
As she continued to walk, frantic for help, she begged the stalker to leave her alone. He kept telling her that he wasn’t going anywhere and that she would not make it to the concert.
Thankfully, after walking a little further toward the venue, she spotted a group of fans wearing the band’s merchandise. She went up to them and asked if they could walk with her.
They said yes, and eventually, the stalker lost interest. She made it to the venue and reunited with her sister. She was quite shaken up and called the police.
Apparently, they’ve heard bad things about that man in particular before and that he is dangerous. They offered to escort her back to her car after the concert, but disappointingly, no one showed up.
“To say I was pretty disappointed with how it was handled is an understatement,” she explains. “It still freaks me out to this day how easily I could have been taken.”
