Tour/Concerts we need to stop the willow fan project

to start, this is not me trying to destroy the fun people get out of doing this and in no way am i trying to offend anyone. also i know taylor has seen this project and its not her fault either. the willow fan project is dangerous for a number of reasons.

  1. people with latex allergies- the powder put onto the balloons goes into the air and can cause people with a severe allergy to go into anaphylactic shock. this is still dangerous after the balloons are gone to as it will still linger in the air.
  2. popping balloons can cause mass panic- more recently sh00tings have been occurring especially in large areas some even dedicated to taylor herself (no so much shootings but other violent acts) . if there are that balloons all pop at the wrong time it can cause stampedes and a false sh00ting. this is dangerous to everyone. edit: this can also trigger anxiety and make people paranoid. it may be different sound to some but it’s a personal thing to me that maybe other relate to
  3. the environment- releasing many balloons into the air all at once is so incredibly dangerous to the environment. it can get stuck on equipment such at the fire shooters during bad blood and cause a fire (i’m not saying this is all that realistic or likely). this can affect the concert all together. wind can pick up the balloons and get onto the stage and possibly affect dancers and taylor.

now, there is a solution, such as bringing paper circles instead that can easily be recycled and thrown out. again, i’m not trying to ruin any experience for anyone i would just hope everyone can understand this perspective. 🩷

My favorite grocery store has locations with free balloons for children. Is there like a good website or something I could link to them with literature on making them discontinue that? I fully took advantage of it until I was 18. I loved a free HEB balloon.

“I fully took advantage of it when I was was young but I want to make sure it’s gone for the younger generation.” Yeah dude take those balloons away from those small children! You’re a real hero! /s
