The concert took place at Brooklyn Bowl Nashville and was part of the annual Tight End University (TEU) event put on by NFL superstars Travis Kelce — Swifty’s real-life love — George Kittle, and Greg Olsen.

Swift, decked out in a black mini-dress and black boots, had not planned on performing at the concert but fellow musician Chase Rice offered her a guitar which led to her impromptu acoustic performance.

The day before the concert, Kelce and Swift appeared hand in hand at an event with an official TEU red carpet.

Tight End University is a training camp and a gathering place for NFL tight ends from all over the league to come together for three days with a final concert always a tradition.

Last year’s event raised over $600,000 to support charities, and organizers say they will likely exceed that amount this year.
