There were more splinters than teardrops left on a Taylor Swift-autographed guitar after a Texas man smashed it apart as "a joke" — after paying thousands for it at auction, the man said Tuesday.
"It was just a joke at an auction that we had to raise money for kids, right?
It was just a joke that they were making up on the stage, and we just followed through with a joke."
But after talking to the man, Meier said it was an obvious political statement.
"At the end of the day, thank you, Taylor Swift," Meier said.
