It seems as if Ticketmaster doesn't want to be anyone's boyfriend this morning!

Tickets for Taylor Swift's highly-anticipated "The Eras Tour" have officially gone on sale, and 'Swifties' have already shown they understand the assignment; Ticketmaster has reportedly crashed not even an hour after tickets went on sale!

Yesterday, Ticketmaster offered Swifties a chance to grab tickets early with a presale. Swifties quickly flocked to social media to discuss the already chaotic nature of the quest to grab tickets!

A range of Swift-related topics was trending on Twitter, including the ticket outlet itself.

Swifties were already 'Ready For It,' tweeting several memes and jokes about the high stakes of acquiring tickets!

Those stakes are reportedly too high for Ticketmaster to handle at the moment. According to Philadelphia radio station, WPST, users are experiencing outage reports on the website, getting error messages, or getting axed from Ticketmaster's "waiting room" altogether!

Twitter users have already experienced a number of problems with Ticketmaster and are sharing their experiences.

One fan tweeted a screenshot of the Ticketmaster error message they received, writing, "it's been two minutes how did ticketmaster already crash?"

Another fan expressed their disbelief about the odds of a crash happening.

"i don't honestly believe that there's 2000+ people, i feel ticketmaster is doing this to everyone to prevent a crash and to just see how many people are there or something idk maybe i'm in denial," a Swiftie wrote.

Other Swifties are reporting the outlet may have logged them out, leaving them unable to stay signed in to the outlet.

How Has Ticketmaster Responded?

As of this writing, Ticketmaster's official Twitter account has not officially tweeted confirmation of an official crash.

Ticketmaster Fan Support has tweeted a notice concerning codes for the ticket presale, writing, "If you receive a code to the TaylorSwiftTix Presale, please log in and access the queue through the link you received via text rather than entering through the Ticketmaster home page. This will ensure an optimal shopping experience."
