Elton John wrapped up his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour in Stockholm, Sweden on Saturday night.

On Instagram, he posted a "by-the-numbers" wrap-up of the tour. It included:

330 shows

6.25 million fans

More than 32 million notes played

Two marriage proposals

16 Gucci suits

120,000 concert programs

38,610 "LAs" sung during "Crocodile Rock"

Thousands of boas, glasses, and Dodgers outfits worn by fans

990 drumsticks

This is also the highest-grossing tour of all time, raking in $887 million. Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is going to beat it.

During that final show, Coldplay actually beamed in from their gig in another town in Sweden to congratulate him.

It looks like it was probably a man, but it's hard to tell. There's no clear shot of their face.

They rummaged through some drawers in the back and grabbed two big canisters, possibly filled with quarters.

It seems like they knew where to look. So people think it was an inside job and could have been a former employee.

Today's Useless Fact of the Day - The polo shirt was designed so that the collar could be turned up, to protect your neck from the sun when you were playing tennis. Does that mean the Preppies got it right???
