The Cowboy Carter Tour is officially in Chicago today with fans lining up hours ahead of Beyoncé’s first show at Soldier Field.
CHICAGO – It’s Beyoncé Time in Chicago.
It means meeting new friends, sharing the love of Queen Bey and celebrating cowboy culture at Soldier Field.
The BeyHive formed at 7 a.m. Fans said they want to be at the front of the general admission areas, for a good view and to be seen.
They say a king and queen of the rodeo are selected, one of the fun fan features of the Cowboy Carter Tour.
Those who wrangled tickets traveled from New York, Tennessee and Washington State. They ambled over to say howdy through the stadium fence.
Jada Cato is in town from Tennessee.
"I’m not necessarily trying to win the rodeo. I was just trying to get in line first. But, just get rest before. Be comfortable while you’re waiting and good vibes, meet good people," Cato said.
FOX 32’s Gabriella Premus heads over to Alcala’s Western Wear to talk about the fashion trends that Beyonce is bringing to Chicago.
Katie Newton flew in from Washington state. She grew up in Montana so she is prepared to line dance. She said the vibe of last year was still "cowboy" but "space cowboy."
Kyra Burke is a native Chicagoan who traveled from New York.
"There’s a sweet honey pit and a buck and honey pit. Those are GA-based so people are getting in line to get in front of those areas," Burke said.
They packed their ponchos for any weather changes.
