My favorite memory is also the memory that got me laid. It was my senior year of high school and I had been seeing this girl for the past few months and was going to ask her to prom. Since we were both huge FOB fans, I figured I would do something based around that. 'Dance, Dance' was the big song that had just come out around that time (this was 2006, i am old) and there was a FOB shirt at Hot topic that had a couple dancing on it. I bought the shirt and wrote "Will you dance dance with me at prom?" and left it with a note and 2 individual CDs. One of the CDs had "NO" written on it and had the song 'Where is your boy tonight?' burned onto it. The other had "YES' written on it and had 'Dance, Dance' burned onto it. Long story short I got the "YES' CD back and we went to prom. We are now living with each other, both about to graduate college. This December will be 4 years together and we have yet to miss an FOB show in Denver (including the tours where they have played two nights).

Ok so my mom bought me tickets for a Fall Out Boy concert on April, 3 2009 for my birthday i was SO excited it was a when Fall Out Boy came to the Mesa Ampitheatre in Arizona with Hey Monday, All Time Low, Cobra Starship, and Metro Station for the Belivers Never Die part 2 show. I had to go with my mom which kinda sucked but what was even worse was I was all alone in the BIG mob of people by the stage. My mom (being worried about me) asked a secrurity gaurd to come down and look for me (the girl with the big black and white bow in her hair) so I get out of the croud when i was SO close to the front. I was so mad but by the time Fall Out Boy came on i was back where i was. I'm obsessed with everyone but mostly, Pete. I got AMAZING pictures with my phone and my zoom doesn't even zoom that far! PLUS i could've swore he looked RIGHT at me with that Bow in my hair and all. It's probably just me but i felt SO GREAT. My friend was at that concert with her mom and other friend. I tried looking for them but it was WAY too hard haha. Then after the AMAZING show, i went to the gift shop and got an fob tote bag! Score! The only bad thing is the pictures were on my old phone -_-" But I still have the memories and boy are they locked in my head. Thats my Story and wow that ninght was the best night of my LIFE! Thankyou :]

Oh wow, this is kinda long, sorry, haha:
My favorite Fall Out Boy memory is from August 22, 2009, my third Fall Out Boy show, and less than a year after the first time I saw them live (which was a long overdue event and a close contender for my favorite memory). That day was something I had dreamed about for years. About a week before the show, I got an Overcast Kids email saying I won meet and greet. I didn't even know what to say. The whole week leading up to it I was literally shaking from excitement. When it was finally August 22, I couldn't eat anything, I was so nervous. I felt like I was going to throw up, because in a few hours I would be meeting my heroes. Once at the venue, the other Overcast kids and I stood around for an hour, maybe a little more, and it was the longest hour(s?) of my life. Finally, it was time for us to get our meet and greet wristbands and actually go inside. I was incredibly nervous, I had made all of Fall Out Boy teddy bears, and I was terrified of what they would think of me. They let us into the venue, and walked us backstage, which was amazing. The first person to come out was Patrick, and I thought I was going to cry. I had been waiting for this day for so long. When it was finally my turn in line, I couldn’t believe it. There I was, standing in front of Patrick Stump, saying hello and giving him a bear. Our conversation went like this:
Me: “I made you a bear. It has a hat…because…you like hats”
Patrick: “Cool! What did you make it out of?”
Me: “A sock.”
Patrick: “It looks like a sock!”
I was so star struck, I had so much to say to him, but I couldn’t remember any of it. And I told Patrick Vaughn Stump that he liked hats. I told the man that never takes off his hat that he liked hats. Next was Andy, who didn’t really say anything, but he was looking at his bear so I was happy. Next was Joe, whom I said nothing to, which I will never forgive myself for, but he was looking at his bear so it was still amazing. Next was Pete, I basically went up to him and said “Hi Pete,” all nervous and awkward. I gave him his bear, and I can’t even remember exactly what he said, to be honest, but he said something nice about the bear. I walked away from the table and back to the end of the line for my picture. It was at that point where I thought I was going to cry. Luckily, my new Overcast friends comforted me, and reminded me that if I cried now, my eyes would be all red in my picture, so I was able to hold it in. When it was my turn, I just kind of stared at Pete for a moment before walking up to them, then he smiled at me and waved me over. I had promised myself before I even got there that I would stand in the very middle no matter what for my picture, so I was between Pete and Andy. Patrick and Andy had the bears I made them, Patrick’s in his hand, Andy’s sticking out of his shirt. I kind of fan-girled when Pete put his arm around my waist (any Fall Out Boy fan would, don’t even deny it). As I was walking away, I realized I forgot to ask any of them for hugs (which I love, a lot). I was walking past Patrick when I realized this so I just said “Patrick! Can I have a hug?!” and he said “Yeah, of course!” That was the best hug of my entire life. Ever. Patrick is cuddly and gives amazing hugs, that’s all I can say. I walked back to the rest of the Overcast Kids, stared back at Fall Out Boy for a bit, and then it was time to leave again. After it, I couldn’t believe it had happened, it all went by so fast. Once I found my friends, I couldn’t stop telling them every single detail of what happened (more detail than I wrote in here) And then we went to our “seats” (Lawn barricade! Woo!) The first two bands played, I sang along, I danced, all that jazz. The second Fall Out Boy came out I started crying. The only time I can recall crying harder than that was my first Fall Out Boy show. It hit me that those people on stage, some of the people I care about the most, my heroes, were the same people I had just met. I didn’t even care that the curtain fell on them (Blink’s tour prank) I was just happy to be seeing them live again. I cried for about half of their set, happy tears of course, and then I finally got ahold of myself. I sang along and I had an amazing time with my best friends. When they sang Saturday, the tears started to come again. I realized that they were going on their break soon and that this would be the last time in a while I would see them play. It was a weird combination of emotions. I was incredibly happy, Fall Out Boy concerts really bring out the best in me, yet sad because it would be a long time until I saw them again. But in the end, I think the happy feelings trumped the sad. August 22, 2009 was the greatest night of my life, and every time I think about it, it makes me cry (which I am now, to be honest) Nothing compares to meeting your heroes and discovering that they are truly amazing people who care about their fans. I don’t think anything can ever top that.

My Favorite FOB memory is in memory of Marissa Pace. She was a HUGE Pete Wentz fan, My husband got the tickets to Council Bluffs show May 2007. He scored Meet and Greets and she got to meet who she always wanted to meet. For the first time in our lives we made someone's dreams come true! Her post on the FriendsorEnimies website says it all:
(peteyfreak: 05/15/2007 5:16 PM
hey OMFP! i went to the concert in council bluffs, and i just wanted to say....YOU GUYS FUCKING ROCKED!!! i love fall out boy with all my heart and this was my first real concert. thanks for making it so special! at the concert, i went to the meet and greet for fall out boy, and i cried i was so happy. pete, i wanted to let you know how special you made me feel because i got to stand by you and take a picture. hee hee. i gave you two pictures too. did you like them?
I'll always love you, Fall Out Boy!
--marissa paca)
To be able to make someone's dreams come true is an incredible feeling. That feeling was short lived and seems so miniscule in the grand scheme of things in life. Marissa dies in August 2008, she was trying to save the life of her friend Adrian who also lost his life that day at the lake. Life is so short, so precious and so impressionable. I wanted to share this memory so you know how much you touched her life, her daily walk, her laughter, her dreams and her desires in life. I can't tell you how many times she and my daughter sang at the top of thier lungs to all your songs. I know you guys helped her through her breakups and her happy times. Please know you guys have effected our Memories of her. Thanks Nona

[my lovee and the most adorable man on earth; pic by mee!!!]

i went to see the believers never die part deux tour [great concert!!!] they were my first concert and i was amazed. the beginning video on the screen thingy was cool. i love the way patrick wore a cute little wig instead of a hat for the first half. patrick rocked his solo on both take over and his kinda solo on arms race. pete was always near us, and he was the most energetic. i remember pete came into the crowd and help my hand. it was the best night of my life. i wish it couldve replayed over and over again. the only thing i dont like was the fact that my camera didnt take video.

I was prepared to spill my guts about going on tour to see FOB at every Australian Show earlier this year, aboout how we made a tour name, got tour merch and tees made up for ourselves and even met people around the country who knew who we were, Pete posted my email to CRUSH on FOE and we basically spent a week travelling around seeing these amazing live shows and indulging our senses in a band that just makes our day brighter. Then I started reading all of these awesome stories about everyone elses favourite moments. Who can choose? When you are inspired and totally in awe of a band each moment is defining for a great many reasons....I can't pick one moment because for me there have been so many great moments singling out one would be like choosing my favourite FOB song. IMPOSSIBLE. But check out my pics from the show sin Feb '09

My favorite memory was Honda Civic Tour in 07'. I went with a couple of my friends and we were down on the floor and I couldn't have been anymore happier. My friend Morg is still my best friend today and always reminisce about the concert and think how amazing it was from the awesome effects to giant FOB sign to the end when the black and red streamers fell on us. Fall Out Boy has and always be my favorite band.

My favourite Fal Out Boy memory is one of epic simplicity, but it really is one of the moments that will probably always stay with me. When the guys were headlining the Honda Civic Tour, I had been a slight fan (From Under the Cork Tree was the first CD I ever bought with my own money), and the new release had been my go-to album for a while. It was honestly the first big concert I had ever been to, if only because Fall Out Boy is one of the only bands that makes me want to scream lyrics and dance like no one is watching. It was in the summer and I had gotten seats in the very back row of the Kansas City Verizon Ampitheatre, and thus far had had a night unmatched by any. Then Pete, Joe, and Andy all exited the stage leaving Patrick to fly solo for a bit.
"Golden" had been a song that touched me since I had first heard it and watching Patrick play the piano and sing so passionately was beautiful. The screens behind him showed the stars and moon from the album cover, which made me look up to the real sky, and that one moment blew my mind. Warm air blew around me as I looked up at the beauty of the night while listening to an amazing band.
Fall Out Boy has offered many a memory, I mean I've even talked to the guys, but I know that nothing will ever match that moment, when everything just felt right.

My favorite memory is when they were in Washington Square Park for the secret concert, the the police came, but Patrick did an AMAMZING job singing "Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy Tonight' then pete showed us his baby, and it was all good. ^_^
