Pic: Did anyone see the ghost of Garth Brooks while buying Ed Sheeran tickets this morning?

What are the chances?

That man will haunt us forever.

In case you’ve just woken up from some sort of cryogenic sleep, the tickets for Ed Sheeran’s concert at Croke Park went on sale this morning.

JOE reader Aoife Taylor from Clare was just one of thousands of Irish people who attempted to buy some online.

When Aoife reached the step where you enter a password to prove you’re not a robot, here’s what she found.

That scrawl in the caption says “Party on Garth.”

We’re hoping that’s a homage to Wayne’s World, and not a cheeky nod to a certain country singer who caused lots of controversy last summer.

Sadly for Aoife, the whole thing didn’t end well: “The worst part is I didn’t get tickets and that just rubbed salt in the wound!”
