With concert tickets at an all-time high, fans would be forgiven for skipping out on a gig.

However, one Drake fan got more bang for his buck with the rapper gifting him $50,000 during a sell-out show in Miami.

The incredible moment happened after the unnamed man revealed he’d been dumped by his girlfriend, despite buying her tickets to the concert. Take a look below:

If you've not been to a Drake show, you might not know that the “One Dance’ singer is known for splashing the cash at his concerts.

The 36-year-old has previously gifted designer bags and gave a Las Vegas fan $50,000 (£40.9k) to spend on furniture after they used their savings for tickets.

Of course, his Miami gig was no different, with the rapper choosing a concertgoer who’d bought his girlfriend tickets to the sell-out show - only to be dumped beforehand.

“I gotta read that sign, I like that sign…that’s a good sign to pick tonight…” as he stopped performing to chat to fans.

“My bro right here…he said ‘I spent all my savings buying tickets for my ex, but never mind it’s really her loss’…” Drake said as he read out the sign.

The rapper couldn't believe the heartbreaking story.

Clearly shocked, the rapper then asked whether she’d come to the gig with the concertgoer laughing and shaking his head.

“What the f**k is wrong with her…you know what, she’s gonna feel real f**ked up, because Imma give you fifty bands so you can flex on her tonight,” he told the fan, as he shared with him the surprise.

The fan was in total shock.

Unsurprisingly, the incredible moment has gone viral on social media with one video gaining over 2 million views on Twitter.

Reacting to the video, one fan wrote: “Glad to see Drake sharing his fortune with people who actually brought him that fortune.”

Others joked about the Canadian rapper’s generosity, with another adding: “Drake my girlfriend left me too can I hold 25.”

A third shared a gif of Bugs Bunny crying, with the caption: “Ladies pulling up with their heartbreak story on the next concert like.”

Earlier this year, the Grammy award winner gave away a pink Birkin to one lucky female fan at a Californian gig.

The insane designer handbag is worth an estimated $35,000 (£28.6) and is made by luxury brand, Hermes.

Eager to ensure the fan left with her present, the rapper then revealed that she would have security as she left the show.

Given how generous he is, it seems like going to a Drake show is a good financial investment.
