I went to Nashville Tennessee jan 17,18,19 for magcon☺️ I live in ohio so I drove 8 hours to get there but it was so worth it. I went with my bestfriend Kayla:) okay so we had VIP and we got there and waited about and hour to go in (Friday night was only VIP) and we got to the front of the barricades and I got a selfie with cam and taylor and It was a lot of fun:) when they called our numbers up to go meet them it was amazing. The first person we met was Jacob. He was a bit shy because it was his first magcon but he was still so sweet. Next I think it was hayes and he was sweet and so amazing. Then it was shawn and he is perfect. Oh my gosh. Then it was carter and he was really funny:) Then taylor and we hugged and talked for a bit. Then it was matthew and my friend loves Matt. So she was talking to him for a while and when she was talking to him I went to nash and I spent a ton of time just talking to nash. He was amazing. So at this point they are done calling people up to meet them ( me and my friend still weren't done bc we spent to much time with each guy) so after nash we had to like cross the stage and there was jack and jack and I was talking to them for a bit and jack gilinsky kept telling me his name Wasn't really jack and I kept getting mad but he eventually said "just kidding" I was like dang u suck. After jack and jack was aaron and he is so nice:) and after Aaron was Cameron. Okay so at this point there's maybe 30 people left there. So cam had a like separate line and there was like 10 people in it and shawn came up and was talking to me and my friend for a good 15 mins. It was crazy. So when I went up to Cameron he gave me a HUGE hug and it was just amazing. We got a picture and talked a bit. It was crazy. He is so sweet and he is an angel. So after cam there was maybe 5 girls left in there just talking to each other or something idk and me and my friend were there for like 30 extra mins talking to shawn. It was so unrealistic but it happened. We were just having a normal conversation. I was like dreaming. Okay so day two. So me and my friend got there early and went in for VIP hour. In VIP hour I got a pic with hayes jack and jack aaron and shawn. So me and my friend were just sitting down talking and nash comes and sits next to us then Cameron and Shawn come. Then of course 100 other girls. And they do a like q&a and I'm like squished next to nash😍 so that's pretty much my experience. Nothing crazy but we couldn't go the 3rd day because we had to get home:( but yeah! ~@dipndotdallas

me and my friend drove from nashville Tennessee to Atlanta Georgia on Saturday with general admission tickets to magcon Atlanta. so on younow the night before I commented (not thinking Aaron would see it) but he did, I asked what to put on our poster. so he said to put his face on our poster. well neither me or my friend can draw so we wrote "AARONS FACE" and outlined it in glitter. we had worked on a poster for 4 hours. Aaron saw our poster in the crowd and came and found us. he gave us a hug, took our twitter names, took a selfie on his phone, and took our poster. Later he followed us on twitter. and then chase performed as well as Jacob and Willie, then the jacks performed. in the middle of their second song they sung, paradise, a girl came back crying. I saw her show her phone to her friend and it was a picture of her and taylor. I asked her where she saw him and he was out at the merch table. I went and got him to sign my taylor bandanna and got a picture with him. that night we stayed at the same hotel as them. Dillon tweeted and said "hotel lobby with Aaron" we couldn't find them so we just chilled there. later we turned around and saw Aaron and Dillon. then later that night we ran into gilinsky. someone told us that the boys had been on the 9th floor so then we wanted to get on an elevator to go up there. we pressed the button and after about 5 or 6 minutes an elevator came. when it opened, willie, Sammy, and matt where right there. nothing else really happened for the next couple of hours tho, so we went back to our rooms and headed home the next morning. ~@sowhitesides

My friends and I were in this Polaroid shop when a random girl came up to us and asked us if was saw that vine famous guy. We knew it was him so we went around the mall looking for him and spot him at Pacsun. He was on the phone so we waited for him to finish and just talked to his friend. After he finished on the phone, we went up to him, I told him sorry for bothering him and he said no it's okay, it's fine. My friends took some pictures for us and I told him how much I loved him and he said he loved me too. We took some selfies and after a few he took my phone and kissed my cheek and took a picture. I was literally smiling so wide. After that, we walked with him for a while and walked around the mall for at least like 20 minutes. His friends came and we said bye and he gave me a hug and promised he'd follow me on twitter. ( but he never did 😭 ) ~@caniffparadise

My experience at Magcon was so fun/crazy, it was one of the best times of my life. The first day was Saturday, i got to the Hilton & there were a lot of girls outside of the hotels, I saw Bart, Taylor Caniff's grandpa & Carter Reynolds' mom. There was a huge line at the side of the hotel, that was the waiting line to go into the hotel when the event started, many girls told me that they had been there since 8am, 7am, one girl told me she had been there since 2am lol. At one point Carter came out to the balcony and everyone was going crazy, there was a bunch of girls screaming and jumping to get his attention. By the time the security were about to let us in I was extremely nervous, So when i was going up to the floor the event was being held I was so excited I started running lol. When I got inside the place there was a stage and speakers, music had already been playing. everyone was pushing and crowding around everyone so it made it difficult to get to the front, but I made my way and got to the front. They announced the guys names and i was screaming very loud because I was very happy/excited. Jack & Jack, Matt, Carter & Cameron were on the right side of the room and that was were I was so i saw them the most, and I couldn't believe that i was actually a few feet away from them because I love them so much lol.  When Nash came to the right side to talk to the boys I was getting goosebumps because I love him so so much. During the event Mahogany Lox was the DJ, the music she was playing had everyone, including me, dancing and singing without any worries. When the boys got on stage of coarse I was screaming like crazy lol, they danced so good, it was fun to watch them haha. Jack & Jack, Jacob Whitesides, Willie Jones, Dustyn Carpenter and his mom all sang for us, and it was so exciting just realizing that they were performing in front of me. I asked 2 girls to have some of the boys sign my phone case and I'm extremely happy because Cameron and Matt signed it, now my phone case is hanging in my room. A few of the guests were walking in front of the fans to take picture with them and sigh their stuff, I got some pictures with some of them. The ones who stood out the most for me were Chris Collins, Crawford Collins & Brent Rivera, my picture with Brent was the most exciting because a. Hes Brent Rivera b. he came out of nowhere lol & c. its not like people just get pictures with Brent in their everyday lives lol. That was day 1 of magcon San Diego. Day 2 was just as exciting even thought I didn't have tickets for that day, I picked my friend up from her house and we got to The Hilton like at around 11am. It was so crazy because Matt and Carter came out to the merch table, so my friend and I ran over there and I was shaking, so I started taking picture of them lol. Then Jacob came out with a security guard and I was so determined to get a picture with him, I was speed walking in between people and speed walking through the plants lol. I finally got next to Jacob, hooked my arm around his, got my phone in selfie position lol and he leaned down towards me, I HAD GOT MY PICTURE WITH JACOB!! I was shaking, I didn't know what do except jump and scream and stare at the picture, It was such an amazing moment for me. Like an hour later Bart and Jacob came out & started to throw a football back and forth, everyone rushed to the scene ant things were somewhat non-crazy at the moment. Then more of the boys came out so I started running to them but there were so many girls surrounding them, I made my way in back of Cameron and started taking pics, and then I TOUCHED CAMERON'S BACK, it wasn't like a quick touch, no my hand was on there for like 5 seconds lol. Then everyone was watching them play football for about 20 minutes, it was so crazy because I realized that its not everyday that you see the magcon boys playing football, in your city, 20 ft. away from you, shirtless lol. When they were done playing football THAT'S WHEN ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE, because they started running without security by their side. My friend and I knew that when they were done playing football they would go to the hotel so we started walking toward it. When I heard every girl screaming and every girl running, I knew it was going down lol. I started running toward them and Taylor was running and i couldn't get to him, the I turn my head to the right and Aaron and Matt were running towards me out of no where, I TOUCHED MATT'S ARM, that's how close he was to me, like wtf, how did that even happen lol. Then my friend saw Cameron coming, so I started running very fast, he was running toward me so i screamed to him that I loved him. It was all a blur but I am so glad that i got it on video. After that crazy experience my friend and I went to have a smoothie at a frozen yogurt place in front of the hotel, like 45 minutes later I saw Chad walking with his wife, so I approached him and I asked him if i could get a picture with, so I did, I told him that I love his sons and he thanked me lol. Those were pretty much the highlights of my Macon experience, it was such an unforgettable/crazy weekend that I will never forget, hopefully they come to San Diego again and next time hopefully i get VIP! ~@Versace_Grier

I had the best magcon experience ever! all the boys were so nice and sweet to me and my friends! My fave experience was Cameron! I was at the hotel with my friends waiting for the boys to come down because they had to leave so they could go to iplay. All the boys came down except nash and cam! The security guard said they already left. But me and my friends knew it wasnt possible. Like no one saw them leave! so everyone left the lobby, and headed out to iplay but me and my friends went upstairs to the 2nd floor because that was the floor they were on. We slowly walked In the hallway and we saw an open room and we heard cam say "yeah I know bro" then chad took the boys out the room and made them move to another room. WE WERE THE ONLY GIRLS WHO FOUND THEM! While they were walking I was only able to take a selfie with Cameron! He was soooooo nice! My phone was stuck it wouldn't open the selfie camera mode so I was like "ugh I'm so sorry it's stuck" he said "no it's no problem". The selfie came out blurry and half his head is cut off cuz he's soo tall compared to me and we were walking while taking the selfie. Then he gave me a hug! After that we headed to Iplay America. I was all the way in the back but I shoved all the way to front row! when the boys were walking past us to go on break they were giving everyone high fives so when cam was passing me with his hands out touching everyone's hand, I grabbed on to his hand and pulled lightly & yelled "I love you Cameron" he turned around to see who was still holding his hand, he saw it was me cuz he remembered me from the hotel so he held my hand back and smiled so big and said "hi" while smiling! Then I honestly couldn't breathe after! I felt like dying! It was the best night ever I love him so much! My fave noticed me, hugged me, held my hand and said hi. 😭 ~@camruppcaniff_

[magconexperiences]

So I was in front where the M&G was. Taylor was facing me talking to a security guard. Then the security guard left so now taylor is facing me right there. So I waved my poster and yelled his name until he finally saw it. And he came over with a huge smile and said: ayyy this is nice. Then he was pulling out a sharpie to sign it and I was like could I get a selfie? And then he said yea sure but lemme sign this first. After signing it I was getting ready to take a selfie and he grabs the back of my head and kisses my cheek and I took the picture. Then he held my hand and said exactly this: Listen you mean more to me than you actually think. Seriously you really do. Then I hugged him and told him in his ear that I love him and he said no I love you. Then he pulled away and I held his face while he said: I promise you really do seriously.

Then I hugged him again and he left smiling. Then I started bawling and couldn’t breath. He is literally the nicest human ever and I don’t care what anyone says. ~@caniffism_

My name is Heidi and I went to MAGCON Chicago. I had Sunday VIP so that means I had general admission on Saturday. It was very crazy. I am just going to talk about my experience meeting the boys on Sunday. So at about 3pm we were let in for the mingle hour. Cam was in the motor scooter because of his foot. So they let the boys out and everyone was crowding them so me and my friends just kind of hung back. Cam was riding around letting people ride on his lap and my lucky duck sister got a ride from him. At about 4pm they started letting in priority and then general admission. Me and my friends were one of the first few people in line so we were of the first set of numbers they called to go meet the boys. First I met Jacob, Aaron, and Hayes. Jacob is so tall it's ridiculous. Aaron is so sweet he asked me how I was before he hugged me and when he hugged me, he gave me a normal hug and then he squeezed me tighter. Then I hugged Hayes he was really nice too. Actually all of the boys were super nice. After my picture Aaron told me it was nice meeting me and I was so flabbergasted I didn't know what to say. I also accidentally stepped on his foot which I didn't realize until I was looking at my pictures. Next was Nash and Taylor. They were nice but they weren't very active I think because they didn't feel good. Let me just say they are really tall I come up there shoulders. So I said hi to. Nash and hugged him, then I went to get a hug from Tay but he was on his phone so I was can I have a hug and he was of course you can. We took our picture. Next was the Jacks. They are so adorable in person. Like Jack J is just so cute. Jack G he is so tall and when he hugs you, you are just engulfed. It is like the best bear but ever. When he hugged me he rubbed my back, it just made me feel safe and like he actually cared. So I took a picture with both of them together and then separate. They were both just so sweet. Next was Carter and Matt. Let me just say before MAGCON I was solely a Cam girl but after I don't know why but I have become very much a Carter girl as well. Although my experience with them was not terribly awsome because the security was rushing us. I was only able to get a picture together with them not separate pictures. However I did ask Matt for an individual picture and he said sure but then the security lady was like no only one picture. So that sucked but all in all they were both really nice and sweet. Finally Cam! He was so patient with everybody. He took his time to sign everyone's shirt. He actually had a conversation with you. It was awsome. So Cam was the only one I took some selfies with and I expected us to only take one but he wanted to keep taking selfies it was so cute. Then we took our normal picture and he hugged me goodbye but before we took our normal picture after we took the selfies he starts to do a body roll while he is sitting in his stool to Drunk In Love. I have full view of this I was only inches away from him. It was pretty awsome. So after I said goodbye to him one of my friends was next and we had Cam do the body roll again because the song came back on, suffice it to say I made sure to record that this time. I just had a really awesome time there but however we couldn't stay the whole time on Sunday, we had to leave right after we met the boys which sucked. I am so glad and thankful that I got to meet them even if it did make me broke. I realized afterward that I was so nervous that I never even acknowledged what the boys smelled like, I forgot to give them goodbye hugs, and I wish I had had more of a conversation with them. The one thing that I absolutely regret is not being pushy and trying to meet them during the mingle because I would have had more time to have a conversation with them. I love all of them and I hope that I get to meet them again someday. ~@CamDallasZayuum

okay so jacob tweeted a picture saying “I want to meet fans” & we figured out where he was from the picture and like 100000 girls lined up outside this arena type thing. they were in this huge line by an entrance. when me and my friends got there we saw like 4 other entrances that were locked up but we went over there, you could see them all right through the gate. We had to be so quiet so other girls wouldn’t come over. we waved to all of them and they all waved to us, then all of a sudden Cameron got up and walked towards us and said hi and touched my hand and I was like rubbing his arms. then He walked away and tried to bring us in like he was arguing with the security guards and pointing at us. they said no. But cam came back with aaron & Dillon. I was hysterically crying and aaron grabbed my hand and Dillon grabbed my other hand. and asked if I was okay. ~@shawnnberry

It was my first day at the Orlando magcon , and I was in the VIP line and they finally let us into the room and I'm shaking I'm so excited , and they told us to stand in a corner and so I went to the corner to the right of the door , and Nash , Taylor and carter came to that corner and I was so happy I was like 6th in line , as people go I'm getting more nervous , and I finally get to meet him , so I go up to him , give him a huge hug and tell him he's my favorite and he looked at me as he is signing my shirt and says " did you just say I was you're favorite" and I reply back with "yesss" and he goes , " well you're my favorite" & wrote that on my shirt sayin I was his fav ❤️ then the second day , I go up to him and he just gives me the biggest hug in the world and squeezes me so tight and just hugged for about a good 10 seconds , it was the best time in my life ❤️ if you zoom in on the second picture you can see where it says "my fav!" on my shirt (: ~@jillbaaby1

Hi! I’m Catherine! This past weekend I attended Magcon NJ with General Admission on Saturday…but my Sunday night story is so crazy!

Sunday night around 9:30 my friend and I went to the boys hotel because we heard they were letting people wait in the lobby to meet the boys. So we got to the hotel and found out that they weren’t letting anyone in if they didn’t have a room there. So 12 girls, including myself, waited outside the hotel quietly. As time flew by the boys were never showing up. Around midnight, Jacob Whitesides came outside and talked to all of us until 1am. He was so sweet and kind. I gave him a bracelet and he said he loved it and called me beautiful and we took pictures :) after Jacob left, Bart got to the hotel and told us the boys would be another two hours! Around 1:30, there was about 9 of us still there. The hotel manager came out and said she was going to call the cops if we didn’t leave…so we all just went and sat in cars. Around 2:15, we saw the bus pulling up so we all ran out of our cars and went and waited. The boys all came running off the bus. Cameron was screaming at the top of his lungs “AYEEEE SHAWN MENDES!” All the boys were singing and laughing. They were all in a good mood. We were all excited thinking that we were finally going to meet the boys. Well the boys all ran right passed us. They didn’t say hi, didn’t talk to us, didn’t look at us or anything. Then at 2:30, three cops showed up. They were being kind and trying to get the boys to come down so we would leave. All 9 of us girls were crying. We were all so upset. Then Taylor Caniff walked through the lobby and saw us all crying with the cops. He came outside and asked if everything was okay. We told him that they tried to make us leave but all we want is to meet you guys. And Taylor looked at us and said we were great fans and that he would take pictures and sign things for us. :) although we didn’t get to meet our favorite guys…we did make great memories waiting outside for 6 hours. I really wish the boys would have stopped but for all the girls who say Taylor is the rude one…think again. :)

After jack and jack preformed all the boys started coming off stage right in front of me cause i pushed everyone so I can be in the front. I was trying to get all of the boys attention but none of them acknowledged me. I was crying because I just love them so much, and then jack g walked by and glanced at me. He turned around and then realized i was crying so he came back only up to me and hugged me for so long. Then he put his hand on my neck and wiped my tears and then he grabbed my face and put it right next to his so he and I could take a picture. I was already crying so hard & I couldn’t believe what was happening and he put his hand on my shoulder and slid it down my whole arm and slowly let go of my fingers and told me that he loves me. Definitely one of the most memorable moments in my life and I would do anything to re-live it! ~@camsburp

[magconexperiences]

MAGCON WAS ONE OF THE BEST EXPERIENCES OF MY LIFE! These boys mean everything to me and meeting them was amazing! Okay well when all the boys come down and they get onto the bus then the bus stays outside for a little and all the girls are still waiting for cam and nash ! But after a while the bus just leaves! No sign of them at all! So then about 60 girls all then head to iplay and the lobby’s just completely empty and my friends and I are just like “no one saw them leave ! They have to be here” so we decide to go the the 3rd floor to look for them! Like what’s the worst that can happen right? We’ll get kicked out! So we go and there is no sign on them! So we then go to the 2nd floor AND THE WHOLE ENTIRE HALLWAY THE WHOLE THING SMELLS LIKE COLOGNE! EXACLY LIKE JACOB AND HAYES! SO WE KNOW FOR SURE THATS THE FLOOR! So we tip toe a little and I hear a noise. I HEAR CAM SAY TO NASH OR CHAD “yeah I know bro” AND OMFG WE JUST COULDN’T HANDLE IT!  We’re about to meet CAMERON FUCKING DALLAS AND NASH FUCKING GRIER! So chad pokes his head out and sees us and they all come out and they are in such a rush ! You could tell that they were surprised we found them but they weren’t mad! They we’re just in a rush bc chad was telling them to like hurry! So we all take pictures and I ask cam for a hug and he gives me one and he’s just so sweet and Nash’s smile is out of this world tbh he’s so adorable! So we were the only ones that met them at the hotel that I know of so yeah that was amazing! It happened so fast but at the moment I felt like it was forever💕 also at the concert, nash signed my phone and I got another picture with him! His smile is amazing! It just lights up 😭☺️ ~@mattsmofo

Hey my name is Sarah I’m  from Southern California and attended Magcon San Diego! Well my experience is long but I’m going to narrow it down to my experience with Matthew. So it all started when I left at 10am on a warm sunny day. When I got to the hotel the only thing that was running the through my head was that I was about to meet the magcon boys so we check into our room to find out we where on the same floor as all the  boys (floor 18). As soon as I got to my room and got dressed and ready to go see the people that make me smile! Once I get into the room where magcon was being held in (I had VIP if you guys where wondering). So VIP hour had started and all the boys came out to greet the crowd and have a Q and A session. And I got a hug from taylor which was cool. After the VIP hour was up all the GA and priority people came in to join the fun. Later on into the event they call my wrist band number and that meant it was time to meet all the boys. When I got to Matthew he smiled at me and gave me a big hug, he asked if I wanted a picture and I was like heck yeah! So he said come here so I get a cute picture with him. So after magcon I went to the hotel and my mom told me that she ordered pizza for my friends and I. So we went down to go pick it up in the lobby. Next thing you know we take the elevator and when the elevator opens Carter and Jack and Jack where all standing there looking at us. Then out of nowhere this security lady started hassling us to see if we where we actually on this floor so she let’s is by and I say hey carter do you want soda and he literally ran to is and was like yes, please! So we have him soda and then jack and jack came by and we asked if they wanted a piece of pizza. They came right over and took a piece and said thankyou and they felt bad for taking a piece but we had two large boxes. So after a few min of talking to the jacks, Matthews dad came up to me and said you can go back to there room area and talk to them and I was like really?! Eventually I made my way to there room area and next thing you know Matthew Lee Espinosa walks and says hey what’s up and I was speechless! I got to have a normal conversation w/ my sunshine for 5 min just us two. It was a dream come true. My friends made their way over to us and Matthew then took some pictures with us and then I gave him the whole box of pizza! He said you are one of the chilliest fans I’ve met, and gave me a hug! By far the best moment of my life. ~@Magconsbetch
