This past Sunday, Taylor Swift spent nearly fifteen hours meeting with fans at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. Taylor made plans to sign autographs and perform for fans for thirteen hours, on the thirteenth day of June. Thirteen, which is often printed across Taylor's hand, is her lucky number.

More than 10,000 people came through Bridgestone Arena, enjoying the museum-like display set up throughout the arena. Fans of Taylor had the chance to see costumes, stage props and other memorabilia from the Fearless Tour while waiting for their meet and greet with Taylor.

When Taylor's team discovered that they would not be able to meet all of the fans that had received a wristband (the wristband promised a meet and greet with Taylor) within their allotted time, Taylor extended the time by more than two hours.

Even though she has been shut out of the past two country awards shows, including the CMT Awards and Academy of Country Music Awards, the fact that 10,000 people lined up on the street for a chance to meet Taylor shows that she's not going anywhere for years to come.

The "13 Hour Meet & Greet" Taylor event, including Taylor performances, will likely hold the record for one of the longest meet and greet sessions in CMA Fest history.
