Texas Man Smashes Taylor Swift Guitar Bought for $4,000 at Charity Auction

The guitar, claimed to be signed by Swift, was destroyed in a viral video amid political undertones.

Gary Estes purchased the guitar at the Ellis County Wild Game Dinner, a charity event for agricultural education.
The guitar's authenticity is disputed, with sources close to Swift denying she signed it.
Estes stated the act was a lighthearted joke, though it appears politically motivated due to Swift's endorsement of Kamala Harris.
The viral video shows Estes smashing the guitar with a hammer to the cheers of the crowd.
Despite the controversy, the $4,000 raised will benefit local youth education programs.
