Photo: ARMY bomb

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

This is my ARMY bomb (also called 'lightstick' when you are going through TSA security in American airports because the last thing you want to mention is bombs to those guys). I bought it at a booth outside the stadium. The best part is that there was a pairing booth beside the purchase booth and they would sync it up to your seat for you. When the concert starts, you turn it on and it flashes different colours and patterns according to the set list. At one point, it spells out BTS and ARMY in the seats. I wasn't planning on getting one but when I saw the pairing booth, I considered they were taking care of the confusing part for me and I caved. Supposedly, I can use it at the next concert (should I ever make it to one). And of course they sell 'decorating kits,' but I'm fine with plain. These were some of the bombs which were ordered for the Map of the Soul tour which was cancelled because of the pandemic. And there were photocards (wallet sized photos of the boys) inside. So win-win!

It works outside of the concert, too. Just lights up and flashes. No colour.

I love that they did the work of syncing it up for you! :) Hard to pass that up, so sure. What a fun souvenir! Makes me think of the old school lighters at concerts.

Yes, it definitely functions like a lighter but less likely to burn someone's hair. A cross between that and a flash light.

That’s a neat memento:-)

Yes, I wasn't going to get one, but my resolve faded quickly. I like it. I hope it is something I look on with positive thoughts in the future.
