A Stranger Gave Me Tickets to Adam the Woo's Celebration of Life

Summary

About ten days ago there was no way I was getting into the Adam the Woo celebration of life. The tickets were sold out and I was shut out. Today I have two tickets in my hand and I’m going. I didn’t know Adam when he was alive. I only saw a handful of his movie location videos by accident and never subscribed. I discovered him after he passed, a couple of days before Christmas, when another vlogger had an emotional outpouring about the news. I’ve been binging his content ever since, and it’s what keeps me dedicated to recording and publishing on this channel after years of false starts.

Missing out was a real low point. I emailed people and even got a kind reply, though with no promises. A video then said they hoped to have screens outside, which gave me a little hope, but a follow-up said there would be no screens and asked people not to show up at the nearby parks. Then some strangers online, who I think live on the East Coast and were coming out for Disneyland, posted on a subreddit that they had two tickets they couldn’t use. Nobody had responded in 30 minutes, so I messaged them directly. They said there was no catch, and they would rather the tickets go to someone who really wanted to be there.

I’m a mix of emotions: joy, and a little guilt, since people followed Adam for nearly 20 years and he’s been in my everyday for two months. Life is up and down right now. The career is going in the right direction, but big expenses came up, and our poor little dog is very sick and we almost lost her a couple of days ago. This is a reminder that something good can be on the other side of the bad. I’ll be there with my camera, hoping to capture joy, love, celebration and probably some sadness.
