A fan of Ed Sheeran was left disappointed, angry, and embarassed to his wife because of what happened during the singer's Stadium of Logjt show. It's not directly the singer's fault, but for what his team is charging for the tickets, a fan couldn't help but be pissed.
The said disgruntled fan paid £720 for VIP tickets to this show, but said that none of the experience he envisioned he and wife would have that night happened. Instead, he was left with vomit-covered seats, a poor view, and a thirty-minute wait for beverages.
James Collier wanted to treat his wife, who is a huge fan of the singer. Consequently, he purchased the best seats in the house, a VIP experience that promised a complimentary bar serving specially crafted cocktails and table drinks service, as well as a pre-party atmosphere in the "private balconies with panoramic views across the River Wear."
He said that all these promises were broken. Worse, he suffered what no one paying good money should have experienced.
First, he stated that the staff could not locate their reservation, which prompted them to miss the first act. Their food took so long, and most horrifyingly, there was a puddle of congealed vomit on the floor next to their seats, as well as vomit splattered down the back of a nearby seat where footballer Kevin Phillip was meant to be seated.

Over two nights, over 115,000 spectators jammed the Stadium of Light just to see Ed Sheeran.
Maybe they came for his music, but the least the management of the location could do was clean up the place for the audience, Collier said.
Collier revealed that despite having a reservation in a room named the James Herriot room, the ambiance was terrible. There was not even a view of the river. He added that apart from the ghastly sight of the vomit, it was the smell that was unbearable. He said his wife was qeasy throughout.
"Clearly, the stadium had not been cleaned," he continued.
After complaining to Sunderland AFC, the warehouse manager stated, "So far I have had nothing from them and as you can see what I went through for £720 was a rip-off and I missed the beginning of the show, the smell for the rest of the show was horrible not to mention I warned Kevin Phillips and his girlfriend to be careful of the seats because they had sick all over them before they came to sit down.
Naturally, the fan concluded that the amount he spent does not warrant the experience he and his partner received.
The club refused to comment and stated that the problem was resolved.
