After blotting his eyes with a tissue and taking some time to gather himself, Harry Styles expressed his feelings. "To all of you who bought a ticket, thank you so so much for your support. Things like this don't happen to people like me very often, things like this don't happen to people like me at all and I just want to thank you all. You changed my life. Each and every single one of you. Thank you so, so, much!" exclaimed Styles.
He expressed how the life-changing event wouldn’t have been possible without the support of his fans. After everyone had left, Harry Styles said he would return to the spot to 'just look at that for a while' and take in its beauty.
This event has made Styles a part of an exclusive group that had only two members before him. A 129-show run and an 83-show run earned Billy Joel his two banners at Madison Square Garden. As for Phish, they won it by playing 13 consecutive houseful shows without repeating a note.
