TshisaLIVE entered the #GlobalCitizen Festival ticket draw & here's how it went

Like much of Mzansi the TshisaLIVE team have been amped ever since we heard that Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Usher, Oprah and a whole lot of other stars were headed to our shores for the Global Citizen: Mandela 100 concert. 

And the best was that we didn't need to break the bank to get a seat at the cost. All we had to was complete tasks and enter the draw, so off we went.

GET YOUR GOOD ON!

In the spirit of testing out the system to see it was all legit, the TshisaLIVE team of five people got down to business. 

One person signed up about two months before the first ticket draw and was followed by two other members of the team. 

While the first two members who signed up did a couple of tasks and called it a day, the third person got into beast mode and did pretty much every task she could find.

Home girl was looking for good deeds like a Cassper for a #FillUp venue.

Fast forward to the day the entries closed...two members of the team had hundreds of points and were the first to enter the draw for tickets. 

Another member of the team, who had signed up just a week before only got into gear of doing actions like a day before entries closed (No jokes...sis was living her best life) and managed to scrape 23 Mandela points to enter. 

Winners from the first draw were to be announced the next day and while everyone thought the team member who went into beast mode from the word go stood a strong chance, everyone was proven wrong.

AND THE WINNER IS...

BOOM! One team member was notified of an email from Global Citizen, which read: "Congratulations, You Just won tickets to Global Citizen Festival: Mandela 100!"

And the winner of the tickets was the team member who did the actions 24 hours before the closing date. 

No one could believe it! The last person who entered from the team was the first to win.

Sis was expecting that golden circle life but discovered the only tickets available to winners were some standing and seating. No golden circle or standing by the fence on the field. 

Judging by the Twitter reactions, the streets were filled with citizens who got tickets and a whole lot more who missed out.

The good news is that there will be more ticket draws in the future.  The next one is on October 15. 

Additional draws will be on November 12, 19 and 26. Now that we know the system works..give it your best shot! 

We will be ready for you, Bey!
