Morgan Wallen had a big weekend in Chicago – his return to the stage after six weeks vocal rest resulted in two sell-out shows at Wrigley Field – and a night of memories for one teen fan.
The young lady – named Karlie – showed up at Wrigley with a sign and a mission – to get close enough to the stage to get a picture with the country superstar. The sign read: “Goals: Beat Cancer X 2 (check); picture w/Morgan Wallen – ???” The teen had battled – and beaten – cancer twice. So would she be able to accomplish her second goal?
Karlie was originally seated a good distance from the stage, so she initially had a hard time getting the singer’s attention. However, as the evening progressed, a group of fans collectively ensured that Karlie could move closer to the stage and have a fighting chance of getting noticed. By the time Wallen started singing “Wasted On You,” the crowd had helped her find her way to the front row -and Morgan spotted Karlie holding up her sign and immediately went to greet her. Taking a quick pause from the show, Wallen approached Karlie and made her dream of getting a photo with him come true.
