UGA students and country fans everywhere have been preparing for this landmark concert for weeks now. Georgia natives Luke Bryan and Jason Aldean brought out a huge crowd of over 60,000 fans at Sanford Stadium Saturday night, the first concert ever to take place at Sanford, and most likely the last. The concert had social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram buzzing the entire week leading up to the concert, and then of course all throughout.

Probably the biggest surprises of the night were from the "guest appearances," by Kelly Clarkson and Ludacris. However, Kelly Clarkson's appearance was in the form of a very believable hologram which appeared on stage during Jason Aldean's song "Don't you want to stay." People were tweeting about the appearance non-stop, and it seemed that nobody realized Kelly's appearance was a mere hologram until the next day. Of course this kind of thing poses some sort of public embarrassment for those who were unaware of the effects and posting to social media. However, more than anything I think fans, especially UGA students were just thrilled to be apart of such an amazing experience at a venue with so much sentimental value.
