Taylor Swift: The disgusting act that left several seats Melbourne concert abandoned for hours – as fans question why so many areas were empty

It was the show that had Down Under Swiftie fans counting down their naps.

But thanks to a drunken concertgoer, Taylor Swift’s huge performance at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Friday got off to a terrible start for some fans.

The badass Swiftie threw up on several seats and left vomit in an area fans had paid hundreds to see.

Fans who booked the vandalized seats had to wait two hours before the disgusting mess could be cleared away news.com.au on Saturday.

According to the report, the incident took place at 7 p.m., but it wasn’t until after 9 p.m. that the Swifties were able to return to their seats after standing by to scrub the area clean.

And by then, Taylor was well into her set.

“We had to stand near the chairs for the majority of Taylor because it took two hours for them to find someone to clean it up,” said an eyewitness. “It stunk.”

Taylor Swift made history by performing in front of the largest crowd ever on the first night of her Eras Tour in Australia, but some observant ‘Swifties’ have wondered why so many stadium seats were empty.

Fans lucky enough to score a seat at the sold-out show shared images on social media of hundreds of empty seats at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

One mother commented that the photos were “so sad when I almost had to sell my soul trying to get tickets for my two girls aged 11 and 10 with no success.

“I sat behind the stage just to be there,” one fan wrote.

“I would totally sit in those chairs… They’re better than nothing,” another commented.

“I could sit there!”

‘Capacity restrictions also apply to the location. Seats can’t just be filled because they’re there and they’re empty,” another user reminded desperate fans.

“(The stadium) was packed to the rafters, no empty seats when she walked in,” another social media user reassured alarmed fans.
