Swift additionally gave a $100 bill to a ticket taker at Highmark Stadium in January 2024, when her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, took on the Buffalo Bills in upstate New York.

"She’s a sweetie pie. Very down to earth," employee Jerris Rainey informed a local news station at the time. "I just wanted to just see her, and she you know she stopped, and she asked me if I worked at the stadium. I said yes, and she asked if she could give me a tip. She gave me $100 and then she asked if I wanted to take a picture with her and I said yes."

Page Six spoke to a source about Swift's experience at the Grammys.
