How? He proudly flaunted his graduation robe right in the midst of a massive, roaring 75,000-huge crowd! Flipping the concert script, Muhammad Syamuel Mahdini brought the graduation vibes by rocking in his robe at the year's most epic concert, making everyone's heads turn. With a once-in-a-lifetime concert, there was no way he was missing the chance to flaunt his grad success! ![Msian graduate wearing his robe at a Coldplay concert, taking a picture before the concert starts](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/whatsapp-image-2023-11-28-at-152810-1.jpeg)Provided to WeirdKaya. ## Why a graduation robe? Curiously asked about the spark behind wearing the graduation robe, Syamuel told WeirdKaya,** "I just want to create some memories and make my graduation a little more special,"** noting that he might never get the chance to do something like this again in the future. Surprisingly, the robe wasn't chosen for its comfort during a concert. He confessed that he wore the robe solely for snapping memorable photos, clarifying that he didn't actually wear it for the entire concert. ![Msian graduate wearing his robe at a Coldplay concert, taking a picture before the concert starts](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/whatsapp-image-2023-11-28-at-152809.jpeg)Provided to WeirdKaya. Syamuel only put on the graduation robe right before the concert started and just after it ended because he was sweating non-stop, even during the short time he wore it. ## Everyone cheered him up Who wouldn't get a thrill seeing someone randomly strolling through the stadium in a graduation robe, right? The response to his unconventional attire was a mix of cheers and congratulations from both friends and strangers. While his family was fully supportive of the plan, our daring graduate was initially oblivious to the cheers around him. > **"I heard a few cheers, but I didn't think it was for me until my siblings told me. They said people were cheering, pointing, and congratulating me from their seats, but I had no idea," Syamuel said.** **The big question now is: how did he breeze through security checks?** Turns out, his cousin played a key role. > **"My cousin brought the robe into her backpack, which contains a few of her personal belongings." he explained.** The guards thoroughly checked her backpack, but they waved them through since they weren't carrying any prohibited items. ![Msian graduate along with his friends taking photo outside the National stadium after Coldplay concert ends. ](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/whatsapp-image-2023-11-28-at-152829.jpeg)Provided to WeirdKaya. ## He was showered with congratulations As he rocked the graduation robe and snapped pictures, a wave of congratulations swept in from all directions. To add an unexpected twist, some people revealed they were fellow USM alumni, turning the concert euphoria into a memorable experience. ![A USM graduate standing in front of the National Staidum after Coldplay](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/whatsapp-image-2023-11-28-at-152811-1.jpeg)Provided to WeirdKaya.

In a world full of ordinary, this Malaysian grad cranked up the dial and made his graduation a Coldplay concert to remember.
