A possible way that Gaga might've not broken her hip...

[NE Thing 1,459]

Hello all! Sorry for the long title  As I have evidently way too much spare time, I have re-arranged the dates of the Born This Way Ball so as Gaga's hip perhaps would have not broken from overworking. Of course, the show would be set up differently so as it is not quite as physically demanding, but this will play a huge part.

The differences

For starters, the shows in Stockholm, Berlin, Koln, Hannover, Nice, Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Manilla, Singapore, Auckland, Brisbane, Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Antwerp, San Juan, Saint Petersburg and Moscow were all moved from arenas to stadiums to minimize the amount of shows. Shows were also spaced out more. The Denmark show was moved to Refshale Island as it only sold half of the tickets available at Parken, so it would look more full. Same goes for Amsterdam, but not enough tickets would have sold to fill ArenA so I moved the show to the Arnhem dome. I also moved the two miniscule (6.5k) Nice shows to one show in Maxeville, France. All shows in Germany were rescheduled to one stadium show to minimize excessive logistics and travelling overall. The tiny (9.5k) Porto Alegre show was cancelled and those tickets were moved over to Rio, Brazil - as that venue can hold more than it played for. Lastly, Russia, Norway and South Africa were pushed forward so the journey the stage and staff moved in was more logical and easier.

But sis, why would you even spend all of your time doing that? You can't travel back in time and propose these dates and save her hip... It happened. I don't mean to be rude, but why? It DID happen. We can only collectively hope her team takes stuff like this into consideration for the LG5 tour...

i applaud the hard work  but how exactly would this prevent the hip? i thought it was the choreography that did that? 

[HOTNebraskaGuy 19,547]

 I can't believe anyone would've taken the time to create a whole complex sinareo like this.

I applaud you though, this must've taken forever!

Or she could've just tried and not move so much on stage. 

[Phoenix 17,395]

she should've just took enough of Mg, Ca, and P in her food, instead of drugs, and she'd be fine.

weren't there some kinda electric stairs thingies on the castle tho?

[Clip 5,100]

I don't think changing the dates could have prevented her from breaking her hip. I remember that she said that she had been feeling the hip pain for a long time, but that she had been trying to ignore it and hide it. If she had been to the doctor when the pain first started (her hip must have already been quite damaged when she felt the pain) she could probably have finished the tour, I mean, without breaking her hip during the next era. 

If she followed your schedule she would probably be able to finish the BTWB but she would break it during the applause era or so

I think some parts of the stage could rotate and go down

[Miel 15,009]

I agree with some people in that this date change probably would have been able to mitigate the pain/breakage for a while.

However, all considering the architecture of the stage, how often and how far she moved, and all that- I think she still would have hurt something.

The only thing that could have drastically changed it all was if she was able to note the pain, and took action earlier.
