40 years ago snuck into Toronto's Roy Thompson Hall to see Coppola's revival of Abel Gance's 1927 movie Napoleon. It was a huge event live orchestra - once in a lifetime experience. I could not afford it. It was sold out anyway. My pal Mimi worked the box office. She said - if you can make it inside - I can tell you where to sit. I put on a nice blazer and a bowtie. I had a briefcase with me as a prop. I just walked around back of the building - found the performers entrance. Saw the Guard sitting there. I sailed right up and said HEY HOW YA DOING TONIGHT! He looked at me and just said - fine thanks - I kept on walking like I knew exactly where I was going.. He must of thought that I knew him. ..Just wandered around backstage til I found a side door to the mezzanine. Saw my pal and she told me that the House always saves four seats for VIP's who come in late - just in case someone big needs a seat. I waited til last sec. then went and slid into the seat - Best in the house Centre 15th row back.. The people in that spot really wondered who I must have been. It was a GREAT CONCERT and MOVIE! Made all the better by the sneak! Don
Now we're talking Don! I love when people share their sneak stories and what an event this sounds like it was! Confident walk through the performers entrance with a briefcase looking like you belong, love it! Then sitting in reserved VIP seats with the staff all wondering who you must be! So happy you shared this buddy:) Thanks!

I had been pushing this sneak out of my head for weeks leading up as it would only freak me out and I don't do any prep until I'm on the property. So the my worrying isn't helpful. Glad to hear I'm able to create some suspense out of it though:)
I make sure of it every time. Part of the reason I don't just do a one sum donation to a cause. Every dollar I put into this goes to the people. Means a lot that you checked it out Jacob:)

Once I told my bestie's @Gcjager the handouts were gonna be like 2k to be the equivalent of an available ticket, he suggested that. When I told him I was in, he also suggested I sneak down to the floor, for which I replied "I can't afford it." Thanks for all the comments buddy:)

Awesome!!! Love this so so much!!! Keep up the amazing work and keep posting these great videos. The smiles on their faces, the hugs and gratitude are priceless!
I wanted Giant Tiger as it's a Canadian company and their dollar would stretch further, but there weren't any convenient locations in the downtown core. Ideally I would have just done socks, granola bars, and mixed nuts as always but with $2K worth, I'd still be out there. Would be happy to hear a suggestion for next time if you've got one?
See here's where it would pay to have a crew working on this with me. Hard to get it all right solo. She had said something about it being her first time from the stage after her opening number, but I guess she was referring to the Eras Tour specifically. Thanks for the edit!
I love everything about this video except the fact that you blurred out the faces of the security staff but didn't give the same courtesy to the vulnerable folks who you were helping in the second half of the video.
@@joshyaks I blur security when they’re exploited in my heist. It’s for their own job protection, even if it’s not by fault of their own. In the second half of the video I’ll only blur if the individual is holding drugs, or prefer not to be shown, otherwise I truly believe those beautiful faces show the humanity and how little it takes to make somebody’s day. If you know anyone in the video that would prefer not to be in it, please tell me and they will be removed immediately.
yo, did you remember doing a short stand up set inbetween a blues jam at lynwood station in calgary like 6-7 years ago? i swear i briefly met and chatted with you. real odd question i know but its bugging the shit out of me. i wanna be like damn i know the guy that gets in places.
@@guyguyguy-y6c I’ve certainly performed in Calgary many times. Laugh shop, Comedy Monday Nights, and a theatre downtown but never at the Lynwood Station. Any chance it was elsewhere in town because that timing would be right?
@@taylormichelson You’re not the first to point that out. I thought I heard her say after her opening number it was her first time, but maybe just her first time doing the Eras tour. Was gonna hire a fact checker but I blew the budget on socks;) Thanks for the correction!
Also suggested to me by a wonderful lady named Nicole who was kind enough to look over my script for this one before the release. Loved how it worked in a couple different ways;)
@@27Shot I believe impersonating a police officer has serious offenses, I don’t think anyone cares if you’re dressed like a construction worker. Security outfit though? Could be worth a try;)
@@27Shot This sneaky business is full of grey areas, but google does say that Section 403 of the Criminal Code makes it a crime to fraudulently impersonate someone, including a security guard, with the intent to gain an advantage or avoid arrest. The penalty for this offense is up to 10 years in prison. I believe getting access to an event would count as "gaining an advantage." I haven't attempted this because I didn't want to play dress up, turns out that may be my smartest decision!
@@JessicaFyre Most first time viewers come for the sneak and are rewarded with the handouts, but if you’re saying my boyish looks brought you here, I’m not upset. Thanks for the love Jessica:)
@@dionowen6050 😂 With the amount of people at your show, I think a sneak in would be noticed;) Thanks for checking out the video buddy. Means a ton and congrats on getting hitched!
Had to scroll there to know what you were referring to. In the moment, it's hard to catch everything and I actually didn't even see her, or I would have waited until she was in the toilet. Oddly enough, I don't really know when they even opened the doors form the building to those toilets? They had security at the doors to them, but didn't ever see lots of traffic heading in and out.
Method : go to underground parking . Take elevator to floor one , get off . Go through stairwell up 1 floor. Walk to unlocked doors . Now your at the bullpens. And inside. Been sneaking in since 1993 World Series.
@@Rippersshow I’ve released quite a few of these and no phone call yet, but there’s not much incentive when I’m already doing the assessment for free. Thanks for watching!
That buddy! Don't know how I keep getting away with it, but for this one for some reason, I just knew I was gonna pull it off. Glad it all worked out and it means the world that it's being enjoyed:)
@@TheHabsFan1909 Love that tip! I did scope out that entrance briefly, there were quite a few employees chilling near the big garage doors but I never returned to follow up through the evening.
@I’m sure if you say you work for the riging company which is the group that setup thé stages and do final preparation in the rafters you could of pulled it off. Like being a technician or contractor
its sad that taylor swift costs 1000$ for press lvl seats. Especially when she's a billionaire she could do the whole concert for free easily. I think way too much money spent on her
She didn't set the prices that hight and she's got a heck of a fan base that want to see her, so I'm not gonna knock her for that. In fact you could argue the high prices meant more handouts for Toronto:) Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
@@BluejaysABc oh gotcha that makes more sense figured she wouldn’t be like that just was shocked at the price but the legend sneaks in once again 🤣 love these videos and seeing you help community great dude at heart !
Noticeable you were able to find that many homeless people. Someone said the concert is for people trying to find community again after the pandemic. Although that may be true, it also resembles the banana bread community during the pandemic. Those who have and those who don't.
@@nicencozy1069 As much as hope to run into people to help, deep down I hope I don’t because that means everyone has found a home. I’ve done handouts a few times in this city so I know where to look, but at the same time I handed out 80 pairs of socks on foot in under 4 hours.
Whether you believe or not... You are doing Gods work my friend. You inspire me and so many others to give back to a world and community of people, some, who have been forgotten. TY
It's honestly the best outcome from these videos. It's not just a reminder to the viewer, but myself of how lucky I am and the importance of sharing that with those less fortunate:) Your take away makes all this rigmarol worth every ounce of effort. Thanks for sharing that!
So heartbreaking man. I discovered it when I got back to my car for the night. After buying, sorting and distributing the handouts the following day, I returned to Rogers Arena Friday night in an attempt to pull the same method and get my shot. They had made improvements at Gate 4 and several others and I just didn't have the energy to stay in the fight. I ended up leaving telling myself "I know I got in and Rogers Centre will know I got in." The viewer will have to decide for themselves.
@@austinbarrett7016 You’re correct it’s only her first eras tour show. Hopefully that didn’t completely turn you off the video. Thanks for leaving a comment.
Forget first world, humanity has enough food and money to go around for all of us to have healthy lives. Just hoping this video encourages those with more, to share. Thanks for watching!
🤣 You're the second to mention their outrageous prices. I wanted a Canadian company and unfortunately Giant Tiger just doesn't have many convenient locations in the Toronto core. Had to make a game time decision, but after hearing about the prices, I don't think I'll be going through them again. Thanks for that!

Thank you for doing something positive for our homeless community. My dad is somewhere out there and it kills me.

@@billjohnson7904 I did admit I don’t have the most important shot from the heist side. But there’s plenty of footage of me walking inside the venue throughout the video. Plus a few shots of Taylor on stage from the TD section, which I chose because you could stand there without being asked to show a ticket. Don’t know what else to tell ya man. Believe what you will:)
With the amount of fans supporting her at that one show, she's not missing a single ticket, and the people I re-distributed it to on the streets of Toronto certainly did appreciated it:) Thanks for watching!
Ohhh this was truly touching! So let me get this straight. You snuck into the Taylor Swift concert only to leave minutes later? By the way, what you did with that money.....💯❤️🥰 🎉
That's sorta my thing. Been pulling these kinda "Robin Hood" heists all over the country. Getting into events, leaving the moment they start and putting that "ticket" back into the community. Got em all in a playlist right here: th-cam.com/play/PLg92zMBmyEMLZoDS3VjLcxAupbAyX-Mwk.html Thanks so much for the kind words!
These videos bring back crazy memories for me, when i was a kid me and my friends snuck into every event in Halifax! every concert that came, World Junior gold medal game, mooseheads games, wrestling etc etc always a great time trying to find cracks in the venues!
As I said elsewhere in these comments I know I got in. If Rogers Centre Staff don't know yet, the moment they check Gate 4 security footage around 5:45pm on Thursday November 14th... they will know I got in to. As far as the viewers, you get to decide;)
I was Taylor’s fan 16 years ago (from 2008) but right now I’m not I still like her looking her personality but music no lol I bought her first album when she even was not famous. Im oven 40 years old woman now the life tells me that there isn’t any fairy tale in this world lol I’m not judging Taylor’s fans she’s an amazing but to be honest, when I saw all these stuffs I just felt stupid 😂, when you were young you had much time and money to waste.
@@wendyzhang2635 I love that so many people feel connected to her, and that she does a great job of having her fans feel seen. Thanks for sharing your story:)
That is scary, Taylor's life and all her fans could have their lives in danger because of you, you just showed them how to get in. Especially since it almost happened in Venice. Just so you know, Taylor donates huge amounts to food banks in every city she tours. One food bank said she gave them enough to keep their doors open for a year, another food bank said she gave enough to feed 125,000 people. How about you recommend the homeless go to the food banks, and tell them where they are.
@@Violet316 Good for her! She can certainly make more of an impact than I can. As far as my handouts go, this is my project. I’m not affiliated with anyone, and being it’s money out of my pocket I want to make sure that every penny goes towards the cause. Me handing those socks out directly to people who need it is exactly that. Thanks for your suggestions!
Wonderful thing you did, Matt Watson, for the homeless people in Toronto. You have done more for these people in your short time there than the Trudeau Liberal government has ever done for the Canadian homeless people in Canada. God bless you 🙏 😊
@@NOTStealthGaming I bet! Saturday night against the Oilers! Leafs had to win it in OT making it so you’re getting let out about the same time as the Swifties! Was watching the game with my dad thankful I wasn’t there. Must have been a nightmare.

I had been pushing this sneak out of my head for weeks leading up as it would only freak me out and I don't do any prep until I'm on the property. So the my worrying isn't helpful. Glad to hear I'm able to create some suspense out of it though:)
Try being his mother
@ I text you the moment I get in;)
Thank you for doing this. As someone whose from this city people are struggling on the daily and this was definitely helpful for many people ❤
@@steffyweffy It’s the most important part of the entire project Steffy:) Thanks for all these kind words. I’m not done yet, promise.
Awesome video man, glad to see the money went to locals 👏
I make sure of it every time. Part of the reason I don't just do a one sum donation to a cause. Every dollar I put into this goes to the people.

bro is sneaking into everywhere
Everywhere in Canada... so far;) If I wanna stay sneaking in this country I gotta wait for them to build another one!
Without seeing the actual sneak i find it hard to believe that this guy didnt just buy a ticket and lie 😂😂😂
You don't know Matt Watson enough then. He's the genuinest guy on TH-cam.
A first time watcher for sure will be suspect, but if you check out all my other heists you'll see that not only do I have a knock for this, but I was honest, when I could have lied. I know I got in. Rogers Centre will see this video, check their footage, and also know I got in. The viewer?
They get to decide for themselves.

I know how important that missing shot is, but I've had people say I bought ticket on videos when I have it. People will believe whatever they want. Just like we get to as well:) Thanks having my back!
Taylor can afford helping the homeless. Epic entry, mate.
@@arricammarques1955 I believe she does do donations to food banks at all her stops.
Probably not personally handing anything directly to those that need it, but that’s where I step in. Thanks for watching buddy!
Got plenty of sneaks on the channel if you want to see more!
@@MattWatsonComedyIf she tried personally handing out stuff to homeless there'd be a stampede! By all accounts her heart is in the right place.. and she brings a lot of joy to millions.

0:26 bro i saw taylor swift in edmonton back when she was still doing country wtf does this mean...
@@ColtonBlumhagen I thought I had heard her say from the stage that this was her first show in Canada, must have been her first ‘eras tour’ show in Canada.
Could really use a writing team, but the full budgets gets blown on socks;)
$1989 I see what you did there 😮
Once I told my bestie's @Gcjager the handouts were gonna be like 2k to be the equivalent of an available ticket, he suggested that.
When I told him I was in, he also suggested I sneak down to the floor, for which I replied "I can't afford it." Thanks for all the comments buddy:)
Thank you dude you're a good guy even though you broke the law you're like a Robin Hood of the 21st century 😂

@@MrTipss First golf suggestion. I kinda like it. Gotta be tricky to secure a 6,000 yard course. Appreciate the suggestion!
Awesome!!! Love this so so much!!! Keep up the amazing work and keep posting these great videos. The smiles on their faces, the hugs and gratitude are priceless!
@@vinnykurri17 Will do Vinny:) Thanks for supporting the channel!
Too bad you chose Loblaws.....probably $25.00 for a loaf of bread.......
Joefresh might be able to give them about 7 more socks with that $25
I wanted Giant Tiger as it's a Canadian company and their dollar would stretch further, but there weren't any convenient locations in the downtown core. Ideally I would have just done socks, granola bars, and mixed nuts as always but with $2K worth, I'd still be out there. Would be happy to hear a suggestion for next time if you've got one?
@@adamofssp That's not ideal, but at least they could go in and pick something out themselves that they could really use:)
That make me happy.
I don’t understand did you get in?
I know I got in.
Rogers Centre knows I got in.
Up to the viewer to decide for themselves:)
Thanks for watching!
2:10 i was at that concert and they were giving out those chips and they were the grossest thing ever
@@heavs.xdrama 😂 I had em later stoned and they still weren’t great. You know your products got issues when!
"First Taylor Swift concert in Canada ever" he says, lol. She toured Canada on 4 tours previously, last one being in 2015 on her "1989" tour.
Incorrect, she last toured in 2018 for Reputation
@@SH-mo8nw Oh that's right. I forgot. I was close. See, I'm not even a fan and I knew she had been here many times before.
See here's where it would pay to have a crew working on this with me. Hard to get it all right solo. She had said something about it being her first time from the stage after her opening number, but I guess she was referring to the Eras Tour specifically. Thanks for the edit!
@@SH-mo8nw Oh snap! Now you're getting an edit too;) Looks like we both could use a writing room!
@ArtIsDrawing I believe she performs tonight in Toronto and then next week at BC Place in Vancouver.
I love everything about this video except the fact that you blurred out the faces of the security staff but didn't give the same courtesy to the vulnerable folks who you were helping in the second half of the video.
@@joshyaks I blur security when they’re exploited in my heist. It’s for their own job protection, even if it’s not by fault of their own.
In the second half of the video I’ll only blur if the individual is holding drugs, or prefer not to be shown, otherwise I truly believe those beautiful faces show the humanity and how little it takes to make somebody’s day.
If you know anyone in the video that would prefer not to be in it, please tell me and they will be removed immediately.
yo, did you remember doing a short stand up set inbetween a blues jam at lynwood station in calgary like 6-7 years ago? i swear i briefly met and chatted with you. real odd question i know but its bugging the shit out of me. i wanna be like damn i know the guy that gets in places.
@@guyguyguy-y6c I’ve certainly performed in Calgary many times. Laugh shop, Comedy Monday Nights, and a theatre downtown but never at the Lynwood Station. Any chance it was elsewhere in town because that timing would be right?
That was not Taylor swifts first concert in Canada, I saw her in Craven Sask, when she was strictly country
@@taylormichelson You’re not the first to point that out. I thought I heard her say after her opening number it was her first time, but maybe just her first time doing the Eras tour.
Was gonna hire a fact checker but I blew the budget on socks;) Thanks for the correction!
The money shot 😮😭
Also suggested to me by a wonderful lady named Nicole who was kind enough to look over my script for this one before the release. Loved how it worked in a couple different ways;)

What If someone has a security and safety jacket?
And what if someone get caught
Is that imprisonment?
@@27Shot I believe impersonating a police officer has serious offenses, I don’t think anyone cares if you’re dressed like a construction worker. Security outfit though?
Could be worth a try;)
@ means jail? For just wearing a security jacket ?(not police officer jacket)
@@27Shot This sneaky business is full of grey areas, but google does say that
Section 403 of the Criminal Code makes it a crime to fraudulently impersonate someone, including a security guard, with the intent to gain an advantage or avoid arrest. The penalty for this offense is up to 10 years in prison.
I believe getting access to an event would count as "gaining an advantage." I haven't attempted this because I didn't want to play dress up, turns out that may be my smartest decision!
I came for the cute guy going to concert not half the video dedicated to telling people they won socks
@@JessicaFyre Most first time viewers come for the sneak and are rewarded with the handouts, but if you’re saying my boyish looks brought you here, I’m not upset.
Thanks for the love Jessica:)
My solo show ticket sales are slow. So if you could sneak into the next one would help my numbers, thanks!
@@dionowen6050 😂 With the amount of people at your show, I think a sneak in would be noticed;) Thanks for checking out the video buddy. Means a ton and congrats on getting hitched!
6:10 man you saw the girl. Should have waited for her to go i to the venue
Had to scroll there to know what you were referring to. In the moment, it's hard to catch everything and I actually didn't even see her, or I would have waited until she was in the toilet. Oddly enough, I don't really know when they even opened the doors form the building to those toilets? They had security at the doors to them, but didn't ever see lots of traffic heading in and out.
Method : go to underground parking . Take elevator to floor one , get off . Go through stairwell up 1 floor. Walk to unlocked doors . Now your at the bullpens. And inside. Been sneaking in since 1993 World Series.

You should really try getting from the garage to floor level

@I’m sure if you say you work for the riging company which is the group that setup thé stages and do final preparation in the rafters you could of pulled it off. Like being a technician or contractor
@@TheHabsFan1909 Would have needed to ‘look’ the part as well, but I do hear you can walk into anywhere with a clipboard and a fluorescent vest!

Will keep those suggestions in mind.
Thanks!
Incredible
I can't believe it either! Crazy what a little determination and sneakiness can muster;)
Glad you liked it!
its sad that taylor swift costs 1000$ for press lvl seats. Especially when she's a billionaire she could do the whole concert for free easily. I think way too much money spent on her
Those are resell prices. She doesn’t set those prices like that
@@BluejaysABc Agreed Those aren't her set prices, but she's killing it. So they're highly in demand and its become a bit of a bidding war.
She didn't set the prices that hight and she's got a heck of a fan base that want to see her, so I'm not gonna knock her for that. In fact you could argue the high prices meant more handouts for Toronto:)
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
@@BluejaysABc oh gotcha that makes more sense figured she wouldn’t be like that just was shocked at the price but the legend sneaks in once again 🤣 love these videos and seeing you help community great dude at heart !
Fresh pair of socks!
@@Oxidize If you need em’ I got em:)
Noticeable you were able to find that many homeless people. Someone said the concert is for people trying to find community again after the pandemic. Although that may be true, it also resembles the banana bread community during the pandemic. Those who have and those who don't.
@@nicencozy1069 As much as hope to run into people to help, deep down I hope I don’t because that means everyone has found a home. I’ve done handouts a few times in this city so I know where to look, but at the same time I handed out 80 pairs of socks on foot in under 4 hours.
This guy is gonna get a life time ban at all canadian stadiums 😂😂😂.
He's gotta try U.S stadiums now
I'm sorta come to that conclusion as well;)
Don't have any planned yet, but I'm sure that'll change. Stay tuned and thanks for watching!
Whether you believe or not... You are doing Gods work my friend. You inspire me and so many others to give back to a world and community of people, some, who have been forgotten. TY
It's honestly the best outcome from these videos. It's not just a reminder to the viewer, but myself of how lucky I am and the importance of sharing that with those less fortunate:) Your take away makes all this rigmarol worth every ounce of effort.
Thanks for sharing that!

@@ThomasBryant Thanks Thomas:)
Great video brother. Sorry bout the camera malfunction but your right the real money shot is the giving......❤
So heartbreaking man. I discovered it when I got back to my car for the night. After buying, sorting and distributing the handouts the following day, I returned to Rogers Arena Friday night in an attempt to pull the same method and get my shot. They had made improvements at Gate 4 and several others and I just didn't have the energy to stay in the fight. I ended up leaving telling myself "I know I got in and Rogers Centre will know I got in." The viewer will have to decide for themselves.
This is not Taylor swifts first show in Canada lol
@@austinbarrett7016 You’re correct it’s only her first eras tour show. Hopefully that didn’t completely turn you off the video.

@@wizplayzyt259 I don’t claim to follow the full thought process of all the comments.

🤣 You're the second to mention their outrageous prices. I wanted a Canadian company and unfortunately Giant Tiger just doesn't have many convenient locations in the Toronto core.
Had to make a game time decision, but after hearing about the prices, I don't think I'll be going through them again. Thanks for that!

Believe what you will:)

they will know I got in to.
As far as the viewers, you get to decide;)
I was Taylor’s fan 16 years ago (from 2008) but right now I’m not I still like her looking her personality but music no lol I bought her first album when she even was not famous. Im oven 40 years old woman now the life tells me that there isn’t any fairy tale in this world lol I’m not judging Taylor’s fans she’s an amazing but to be honest, when I saw all these stuffs I just felt stupid 😂, when you were young you had much time and money to waste.
@@wendyzhang2635 I love that so many people feel connected to her, and that she does a great job of having her fans feel seen.

That is scary, Taylor's life and all her fans could have their lives in danger because of you, you just showed them how to get in. Especially since it almost happened in Venice. Just so you know, Taylor donates huge amounts to food banks in every city she tours. One food bank said she gave them enough to keep their doors open for a year, another food bank said she gave enough to feed 125,000 people. How about you recommend the homeless go to the food banks, and tell them where they are.
He could also suggest to the able bodied homeless to get a job and work for a living like the rest of us.
@@rayray8687 A lot of them have mental issues, do you think people would hire them, probably not?
