People are doing everything in their power to score tickets to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.

Nashville accountant Davis Perrigo, for one, went as far as to get a second job... but not to for the extra cash to purchase tickets.


Unable to secure tickets to Swift's tour stop in Nashville, Perrigo decided to go another route to get into Nissan Stadium where TSwift broke attendance records three times already.

His strategy?

Perrigo applied to be a security guard at the event.

And he got it! Perrigo was able to enjoy the concert closer in proximity to the "Lavender Haze" singer than any paying attendee, to boot.

Of course, he was not able to film while on the job, but other concert goers were so impressed by Perrigo's enthusiastic singing, footage of him quickly went viral.

You can see a video posted by one TikToker below.

Loved this video one of my listeners Leah sent where a security guard gives Taylor a run for her money at one of her Nashville shows! #taylorswift #taylornation #swiftie #swifttok

The video has been viewed more than 7.8 million times already, drawing quite the attention to the Swift-loving security guard.

Perrigo's story even got a spot on NewsChannel5 in Nashville.

Viewers of both the TikTok and the news segment all agreed Perrigo did it right.




And others wished so badly he could've turned around for at least a song or two.




In his interview with NewsChannel5, Perrigo revealed even his wife is impressed by his enthusiasm.

"My wife jokes that I sing Taylor Swift songs with such passion for someone who's never been broken up with."

While Perrigo noted the viral nature of the video is "out of control," he will forever be grateful for the opportunity to be front and center for TSwift.

The public backlash against the seven rapists and four university officials named in the suit, as well as Cornell University, the Ivy League, and fraternities as a whole has been swift. Many people have shared their own experiences with institutions of higher learning and the mishandling of sexual assaults.

Trump Hit With Blistering Factcheck After Making Patently False Claim About Prices Going 'Way Down'

President Donald Trump was swiftly fact-checked by CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale after he claimed to members of the press that "almost every price has come way down" following Joe Biden's presidency.

Earlier in the day, Trump bragged to reporters that the United States has the "best poverty," sparking immediate criticism. He continued to lie later, even as inflation remains above the level recorded when Biden left office, economic growth has slowed, and the cost of filling a gas tank has surged roughly 50% since the war against Iran began.
