251/252/253rd Stopped Pick-Pockets: TRIPLE Stop At Taylor Swift Concert In Buenos Aires!!!

Argentina ›   Buenos Aires ›   South America ›  

Editor's Note: The concert this incredible TRIPLE stopped pick-pocket testimonial came from made international news when Taylor Swift changed the lyrics to one of her songs to highlight her new friendship with Travis Kelce from the Kansas City Chiefs. What didn't make the news until today was Conrad's unbelievable experience at the hands of pick-pockets in the crowd. Conrad originally wrote in to ask for more buttons after one was cut off his pants in the crowd, and we followed up to learn more about his experience. Conrad is officially in his Stopped Pick-Pocket Era! He was wearing our Flagship Adventure Travelers in Argentina. Here is how it happened:

 

Dear Clothing Arts,

3 times people tried to pickpocket me at the above concert on Nov. 11.

The rear button in this photo was torn off. See photos.

Nothing was stolen.

Thank you.

​- Conrad S. from Austin, Texas

 

We Followed Up To Learn More About How It Happened:

 

Dear Clothing Arts,

Once, a boy on my left tried to go into the front left triple lock pocket and failed.

This is a floor seat without US lawyers, so you are touching skin on all 4 sides of you in Buenos Aires.

After 2 girl attempts from behind where nothing was in the pocket, I pretended to be hot and fainting as many people were (but I am 6 foot 3, shorter people had no air to breathe) and intentionally got myself pulled out of the concert floor area by concert security.

Only today did I notice that this pocket I rarely use as it is a rear pocket had the button missing.

So yes, I was aware of all 3 attempts as they occurred, and after 3 failed attempts, I left that very crowded area, only 5 people deep from the dead zone front barrier with security, after which just 8 feet away was Taylor Swift.

Enjoy the story.
