Style: The Silent Ninja

Skill level: Advanced

Description: Sneaking into their hotel room comes with the added risk of being busted by security, but the payoff is big. These fans snuck onto the hotel room floor roped off for One Direction and waited with their cameras like silent ninjas. They write on YouTube: “harry sounds pretty sloppy and apparently zayn was too. harry was in his boxers, riding on someones back down the hall while yelling something. best night of my life.” Apparently in the video Harry’s saying: “I got caught though, OLLY!” Whatever that means.

Name: The Chasers

Skill level: Novice

Description: If you’re a beginner, figure out where the band is doing their next book signing, wait till after the event and when you spot them RUN FOR YOUR LIFE. Here’s Zayn Malik riding on a golf cart at a signing in Chicago. She writes on YouTube: “This was a crazy experience and I just happened to be outside of the arena when they were(:”

Name: The Messenger

Skill level: Medium

Description : If you have a personal message for the guys, sit down with a piece of paper and a pen, and blubber out all your feelings. Then when you meet them in person you can hand them the note, just like these fans did for Zayn Malik in NYC. Zayn smiled and waved at these ladies. Just avoid excessive use of the word “love” and “marry me.”
