Will pop superstar Taylor Swift’s attendance record at Acrisure Stadium “Stay Stay Stay” and prove to be as “Untouchable” as it seems?
Swift set an attendance record for Acrisure Stadium Saturday night, according to stadium officials, with the crowd of 73,117 the largest ever for the venue.
Country star Garth Brooks held the previous record of 72,887 from his May 18, 2019, show at Heinz Field.

Attempts at discouraging fans without tickets from showing up apparently didn’t fare well Saturday.
Thousands of fans gathered outside the stadium to listen and dance along, with the crowd size growing even larger than it was Friday night.
