Check Out The Fan Appreciation Contest Winners

Congratulations to Lisa, Mike, and Steffanie the winners of the Fan Appreciation Contest! See the winning entries below.

Lisa said: “I have been a Carrie Fan since American Idol. I have been to every concert I was able to attend in our city. And I had the pleasure of meeting Carrie by winning a meet and greet in Las Vegas. It meant everything to me. I wasn’t even going to go, but my boss said no you have to go. So I went and got a phone call the morning of the concert asking if I would like to meet Carrie before the show. Heck yes!! I was so excited and it was a true blessing to get to meet her, she is the kindest, sweetest person you could ever hope to meet. I’m going to Vegas again to see her in concert, hoping for another chance to meet her, as I’m going with my daughter on my 56th birthday this year. December 6th. It would be the best birthday present ever. Music is a true blessing to have in our lives, singing makes everything feel so much better. I will always be a Carrie Fan. Such a positive, kind individual.”


Mike said: “I think my favorite memory was during the meet and greet at the Denim and Rhinestones Tour meet and greet. I lost my grandpa back in 2021 and the song that helped me go through the pain was the song Temporary Home. When meeting Carrie I asked her if she could write her favorite lyrics of the song for me to design a tattoo in memory of my grandpa, and she agreed. I was a very happy moment for me, and I was very grateful that Carrie was so understanding.”


Steffanie said: “I remember voting for Carrie Underwood on American Idol 18 years ago and I have been a huge fan ever since. My favorite memories are from all the concerts I have been to; with my mom, sisters, best friend, and husband… and this month I get to take my 8-year-old daughter to her first Carrie concert at Soaring Eagle Casino. Thank you for allowing us to have so many special moments while bonding over your music. Working in the restaurant industry, I am far from rich, but I will continue to work hard to save and support you for all the years to come. Carrie- you have been such a huge part of our lives and we are so blessed to have you, and your music. You have made me laugh and cry- and have also given me faith and hope, I have literally grown up listening to you. Thank you for being such a great role model to me for 18 years, being there to help me get through so many hard times in my life… now I get to fall in love with your music all over again through my daughter. Thank you for all you do for your fans and the time you share with us. We will be Care Bears for life!!! We love you and will see you soon!”
