Texas man smashes autographed Taylor Swift guitar after buying it for $4,000

A Texas man is going viral after bidding $4,000 on a guitar signed by Taylor Swift, only to smash it with a hammer.

The incident took place at the Ellis County Wild Game Dinner fundraiser on September 28 in Waxahachie, Texas.

A video of the event shows the man breaking the guitar after winning the bid, sparking a debate online.

Some viewers speculated his actions were linked to Swift’s political endorsement of Kamala Harris, but the guitar was donated before her announcement.

Reactions were mixed, with some calling it wasteful, while others noted the funds supported local youth programs.
