Managers at local shops say they had already beefed up staff, but Friday some were calling in even more employees to ask them to work Saturday and Sunday, as they believe it will be even busier than they initially expected. "It’s crazy we had Taylor Swift and the Blue Jays," said Ricky Ramirez, Bar Manager. "I walked out here at 9:00 and there was a huge line for Taylor Swift merch, it was nuts.""It’s a lot more busy than the All-Star Game," said Ramierez.
He says the city also reached out to businesses, letting them know that cities on Swift's tour have seen massive crowds. Trent expects there will be a lot of parents and others waiting outside the concert too – in addition to those who have tickets.
