A Texas man recently went viral after winning a $4,000 bid for a guitar signed by Taylor Swift, only to smash it with a hammer moments later.
This surprising act occurred during the Ellis County Wild Game Dinner in Waxahachie, Texas, on September 28, which aimed to raise funds for agricultural education for local youth.
The auction featured various exciting items, including tickets to see George Strait and Chris Stapleton and a trip to an African safari.
When the man placed his winning bid for the signed guitar, he walked up to the stage, received a hammer, and shocked the audience by destroying the guitar right before their eyes.
Some viewers speculated that his actions were a reaction to Swift’s recent political endorsement, but it’s important to note that the guitar had been donated long before that announcement.
Reactions to the incident were mixed: some applauded his boldness, while others criticized him for what they considered a waste of money.
Ultimately, the proceeds from the dinner benefited the Future Farmers of America, supporting local youth and promoting agricultural education.
