A Texas man is going viral after bidding on a guitar signed by Taylor Swift and then smashing it with a hammer.The video, which has since been shared on multiple social media networks, shows the man grab the guitar after placing the winning bid of $4,000 and attempting to break it into pieces.
“When the man announced his intention to smash it the camera phones came out,” an event attendee told The Independent.
The viral moment happened at the Ellis County Wild Game Dinner in Waxahachie, Texas on September 28. The event acted as a fundraiser to support agricultural and rural education for the local youth.
Tickets to see George Strait and Chris Stapleton, an African safari, a trip to the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, and the Taylor Swift guitar were among the prizes being auctioned off.
When it came time to start the bidding on the Taylor Swift guitar, one man offered $3,200 for the signed guitar. According to the event organizer, the winning bidder paid $4,000 for the item.
In the viral video, the winner can be seen approaching the stage to claim the guitar. As he grabs the guitar, he is also handed a hammer which he takes and swiftly begins hitting against the instrument.
Some viewers have suggested the man beat the guitar due to Swift’s recent endorsement of Kamala Harris, though according to TMZ the guitar was donated well before Swift made her announcement.
The man’s actions sparked a debate with some people applauding him for destroying the guitar and others saying he should have donated his money directly to charity.
“What a waste of money,” one person wrote.
“It wasn’t a waste of $$ at all! The $4,000 he spent did go to the kids. The proceeds for the dinner went to the Future Farmers of America,” another chimed in.

Unveiling the Mystery of the Meat Grinder
Challenge Accepted
Are you ready to put your knowledge to the test? While many find themselves puzzled by this enigmatic object, if you’re among the 20% who recognize it, get ready to showcase your expertise.
Understanding the Meat Grinder
This kitchen appliance, known as a “meat mincer” in the UK, serves the purpose of mincing or finely chopping raw or cooked meat, fish, vegetables, or similar food items. It replaces traditional tools likе the mincing knife.
Operational Mechanism
Food is placed into a funnel atop the grinder, then advances into a horizontal screw conveyor. Whether hand-cranked or powered electrically, this conveyor compresses and mixes the food. Eventually, the minced food exits through a fixed plate, its fineness determined by the size of the plate’s holes.
Historical Background
In the nineteenth century, Karl Drais pioneered the first meat grinder. Initially hand-cranked, it forced meat through a metal plate with small holes, yielding lengthy, thin strands of meat.
Evolution and Innovation
With the widespread availability of electricity, powered meat grinders emerged. Modern electric models efficiently and uniformly process large volumes of meat. Some even come with attachments for sausage-making, kibbe, and juicing, broadening their range of applications.
Conclusion: Culinary Technological Advances
From its modest beginnings as a hand-cranked device, the meat grinder has evolved into a versatile kitchen appliance, symbolizing both technological and culinary progress.
