Guy's Tinder QR Tee Turns Heads At Ed Sheeran Concert

Forget lighters and glowsticks; this concertgoer brought the ultimate wingman: a QR code. A recent Ed Sheeran concert in Mumbai took a turn for the tech-savvy when a man named Hardik (age 22) showed up rocking a T-shirt with a giant QR code on the back. But this wasn't your average barcode for merchandise. Scanning it with a smartphone unlocked the real prize: Hardik's Tinder profile!

Ed Sheeran, a British singer and songwriter known for his popular love lore, and this young boy, Hardik Aneja, won hearts with his unique approach in probable finding love on the grounds of the concert in Mumbai, reportedly walking 8 km wearing the t-shirt. 

Concert-goers were not just quick to spot the unique tee of their fellow concert attendee, but also quick to upload the back of the man on the internet, amazing the netizens. They spotted the genius marketing ploy and snapped a picture. "For Single People Only," her caption read, sending the image viral.

As many curious heads actually scanned the QR code on Hardik's t-shirt, it really surprised them where it was expected, on his Tinder profile, where the bio read: "Look who finally found me! Yes, I am the guy you spotted with the scanner on his tee. Grabbing ice cream together sounds like a perfect date idea. Wdyt?" 

The young boy's creative stunt and its post racked up views and comments, with netizens applauding Hardik's out-of-the-box approach to online dating as an X (formerly Twitter) user wrote, "Gonna do this at IPL stadium to find my life partner," while the other tweet read, "Bro promoted himself like nobody else ever could."

Whether Hardik swiped right into his dream match remains to be seen, but one thing's for sure: he's got the internet talking. However, to everyone's dismay, this turned out to be a marketing gimmick, as the bio in the end read: "Tinder partner. This profile is for promotional purposes." But this quirky story is a reminder that in the age of digital connection, a little creativity can go a long way in the quest for love.
