Bantly doesn't charge a fee for his service, but he certainly takes donations. "People's consciences pay way better than any set price," he said. "Everyone here is really nice about it."

He takes all kinds, too, he said. He's worked Winterfest, Tulsa Performing Arts Center shows, BOK Center shows, Cain's Ballroom and Brady Theater shows and more. "I've learned a lot about the history of downtown and will share what I know about the Race Riot monument, our art deco and stuff like that," he said.

"Kids love to get in the cab because they think it's an amusement park ride," he said. "They beg their parents until they say yes. I encourage that behavior," he added, then laughed.

Then there are the first-daters, the rodeo men speaking Spanish or Portuguese and "riding like I'm a bull" and the "girls-night-outers." "Almost all of them are sharing stories while we ride. It's always fun."

Find him in the red and black bicycle cab -- "The one that plays loud music," he said. "If it's a Christmas show night, I'll play holiday tunes. If Journey is at the BOK Center, I'll jam that. If it's Bieber, you'll probably hear that, too."

'Best birthday ever' Jennifer Green woke up her 4-year-old daughter extra early before school on Dec. 19. For Kendyl's fifth birthday, she'd open her presents before school.

"The Bieber tickets get opened last," she said, preparing to send her kid off on possibly the second best day ever.

The first best day, of course, will be Wednesday at the BOK Center.

"We've had these tickets since they went on pre-sale back in, what, June?" she said. "I'm not a good secret keeper at all. This has been really hard on her dad and me."

But oh-so-worth-it. Dad's staying home to sit the couple's infant daughter that night as mom and daughter hit the town for dinner and the concert. Green spent "more than $300" on the tickets. "We got the good seats," she said.

Kendyl first "met" Bieber last year when some of her older school friends started listening to his music. "Then, she got a toothbrush that played his music, and really, it just took off from there."

The lucky girl "had been moping around the house for weeks after she learned that some of her friends were going," Green said. "I just kept telling her, 'Wait until your birthday, just wait.'

"It's the best birthday present ever."

Hooked Victoria Roberts definitely vies for the title of one of Justin Bieber's biggest fans. Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of competition there, but this 11-year-old boasts 200 Bieber posters between herself and sister Elizabeth, 15.

Wednesday's concert won't be her first time to see the performer live, either. She caught his sold-out show back in 2010, too.

"I screamed really loud," she said about the moment her mom, Trisha, told her she'd scored concert tickets. "Why was I so excited? Because I get to see him dance -- he's a really good dancer -- and sing. And I get to be really close to him."

She's been a fan since way back. Victoria discovered his first videos on YouTube back in 2008, before Bieber Fever broke into a worldwide phenomenon. He's sold 53 million albums since then.

"I was hanging out with my friends and we found his music online," she said. "He was doing things really different, things we hadn't heard before."

She was hooked. She's since bought all three of his albums, his perfumes, a life-size Bieber cardboard stand-up poster, necklaces, watches, tees and other clothes, she said.

She couldn't begin to put a monetary value on her collection, nor would her mother.

"I'm going to wear something so that Justin might notice me," Victoria said dreamily as she anticipated the concert.

"Last time, her mother, a limo driver, took them in a stretch with about 15 other friends and their parents.

"I hope we can do that again this time," she said. "I don't know yet. It'll be a surprise if we do."
