Couple Stuns Uber Driver with Free Ticket to Garth Brooks Concert, Credits God for Timing

Zack and Katie Watson from Columbus, Georgia, were visiting Alabama to attend a Garth Brooks concert.

They’d decided to take an Uber to the venue to avoid parking and all the drama that comes with it, but they still ended up experiencing a bit of drama when their first Uber driver canceled on them.

But they managed to secure a second driver: Vicky Wallace from Guin, Alabama.

As Wallace headed toward the concert with the couple, she had a pretty good idea of who they were going to see before they said anything.

That’s because Wallace, a retired cosmetologist, is a major Garth Brooks fan — and she told the Watsons so.

“I assume you’re heading to the Garth Brooks concert,” she said, according to a Facebook post from Rick Karle with WTVM-TV. “I love Garth so much — seeing one of his concerts is on my bucket list.

“Someday I might get a chance to see him in person. He has such a beautiful soul.”

Immediately, Zack and Katie looked at each other. In that moment they seemed to come to an agreement, and Katie made Wallace an offer she couldn’t refuse.

“Our friend Anna couldn’t make it, as she is under the weather,” Katie explained to Wallace. “Would you like to go to the concert with us?”
