Concert Margaritas Cause Illness - AT&T Stadium, Arlington Texas

1 AT&T Way, Arlington, 76011 Texas, United States

Att stadium

There were three of us who went to see Billy Joel and Stevie Nicks on March 9, 2024. We had floor seating. Before the show started, two of us had a frozen margarita from the bar at the rear of the floor seating. About an hour later, I started getting severe stomach cramps and feeling like I needed to get to the restroom ASAP. I spent about 45 minutes in there. The first time. I started to leave the restroom on four different occasions, only to unlatch the door and feel the need to continue “the process”. After feeling like any food and beverage from the last three days had exited my body, I washed my hands and started down the hall. It was in between the two artists, so there were at least 100 ladies in line for the restroom. I saw my friend (who had the other margarita), and she was starting to feel ill at that point too. I figured it would be safe to wait in line with her once again, because by the time I got to the restroom, which looked to be at least an hour of a wait, I would probably need to go again. That time, we both spent 45 minutes to an hour in the restroom wiith severe diarrhea. We had really good seats out on the floor, but unfortunately, we probably only saw a total of about 45 minutes of the concert, because we were unable to leave the restroom. We continued to be sick until the next morning, exchanging who would be in the bathroom back at our hotel room. The third person, who did not have a margarita, never got sick. It was definitely the margarita, as we tasted something a bit off when we were drinking them. We just figured it was a different mixture of ingredients. I complained to the restroom attendant, who I got to see MUCH more than I cared to that night. I told her that we had gotten sick from the margarita. She referred me to the security manager, and pointed out who she was. When I went to her, she was completely uninterested in anything I had to say. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Cramps
