A Beyoncé fan who missed seeing Queen Bey in concert got a happy ending to his saga when he saw the pop megastar perform in Dallas Thursday night.

Jon Hetherington, the Oregon man who missed Beyoncé's Seattle show after an airline said they couldn't fit his wheelchair, was aided by her team in his quest to see the "Renaissance World Tour."

He even got to meet Beyoncé and her mother, Tina, according to a post on his Instagram account.

This all started when Hetherington, who has cerebral palsy, originally shared a video on TikTok last Thursday that his dream of seeing Queen Bey was crushed after an airline said his wheelchair was 4 inches too tall, preventing him from leaving Oregon to get to Lumen Field on time.

Luckily, the internet stepped in, and Hetherington's story went viral. He shared his joy of getting to go to the concert in Dallas on his Instagram page Thursday evening.
