Chicago resident wins 100-level tickets to Taylor Swift through PAWS raffle
CHICAGO - We know "All too Well" the troubles that Taylor Swift fans faced trying to get tickets to the 'Eras' tour.
But on Thursday, one lucky fan's 'Wildest Dreams' came true.
Stuart Hayter of Chicago won a pair of 100-level tickets to the Chicago show through a raffle with PAWS.
Fans donated a minimum of $20 to the animal shelter for a chance at this ‘Love Story.’
PAWS says it raised more than $68,000 to help local animals.
The shelter says entries came from 36 different states, plus Puerto Rico and Washington DC.
And, get this — there were even entries from overseas in China, Ireland, Germany, Poland and New Zealand.
