How do I know that? Well, it was proven by just how swift he was to destroy it with a hammer.
Warning: this article contains content that might upset hardcore Taylor Swift fans. Especially those who would do anything to get their hands on one of the instruments the artist has used to create her much-loved songs.
The attack against the guitar took place at an event known as the Ellis County Wild Game Dinner in Waxahachie, Texas, on Saturday (September 28).
On its website, the Ellis County Wild Game Dinner describes itself as an organization committed to ‘supporting agricultural and rural education to the youth of Ellis County’, which it does by offering ‘scholarships, animal and ag mechanics project grants, and purchasing projects at Elllis County Youth Expo’.
“We will do everything within our power to help youth that are willing to work to better themselves, and give them the resources they need to reward themselves,” the site says.
As part of their mission to help youth, the Ellis County Wild Game Dinner held an auction which included, per its Facebook page, a ‘guitar autographed by country music star Taylor Swift’.
The guitar was donated by a group called ‘WGB Sponsors’, and an image on the Facebook page featured a plain brown guitar.
The guitar actually featured in a video from the auction was much more Swift-centric, however, as it was decorated with images from Swift’s recent Eras Tour.
When it came time for the guitar to be auctioned off, it caught the attention of one man who began bidding.
According to the person who shared the video on TikTok, the man offered up $3,200 to become the guitar’s new owner.
It’s a purchase a lot of Swifties would die for, but the man clearly wasn’t interested in displaying the guitar in his home.
Instead, it was presented to him alongside a hammer, which he took and began ploughing into the wood of the instrument.
