Texas (TDI): The video of a man smashing a signed Taylor Swift guitar to pieces shortly after paying $4,000 for it at an auction went viral on social media.
The event was held at the Texas Ellis County Wild Game Dinner, a charitable fund-raiser that helps local youngsters receive education in agriculture.
Even though the guitar was given by a third party before Taylor Swift endorsed Kamala Harris, the man eagerly proceeded to smash it.
Although the item was supposed to raise money, the buyer destroyed the guitar, which had a certificate proving the instrument’s authenticity.

Before he could say anything more, the presenter stepped in.
The incident has caused much controversy online, with some people applauding the man’s actions and others criticizing him for wasting money on damage.
The incident was captured on camera during the Sunday night concert near Dallas, Texas, and it surfaced on Monday.
