It comes amid an Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage that has left problems across the country with internet services, including Ticketmaster.

"Due to the AWS outage that has affected many other services, some fans are still experiencing some intermittent issues on our site. Our teams are working to get all systems back in order as quickly as possible," Ticketmaster said in a statement on X.

Our Carolyn Clifford, Mike Duffy and Ruta Ulcinaite were live outside of Ford Field, talking to fans about the excitement.
