Taylor Swift’s massive fan base, aptly dubbed The Swifties, has been known to be over the top when it comes to conspiracy theories and album drops, and to show no mercy online when it comes to alleged enemies of the reigning queen of pop music goes.
But now fans have reached a new dimension after they decided to bottle and sell an unexpected souvenir from one of their The Eras Tour concerts at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts – rainwater.
During Saturday’s show (the second of three nights of sold-out shows), fans were faced with torrential downpours and inclement weather as Swift braved and performed through the rain.

An image shared across the internet on both Twitter and Instagram went viral after the seller (apparently on eBay) attempted to sell water containers for $250.
“What an entrepreneur,” joked one person alongside a crying, laughing emoji alongside the screenshot posted to @OnlyInBos’ Instagram page.
“There is something deeply wrong with the people who seek it,” said another.

WBZ Boston reported that the listing for the water had been removed and nothing of the sort could be found on eBay as of Tuesday afternoon apart from Fans will receive a complimentary glowing bracelet upon entering the venue (Price: $10) and a collection of confetti to fall on the crowd at the end of the show (Price: $15).
It is estimated that nearly 200,000 fans attended Swift’s three sold-out shows at Gillette.
Storms are no stranger to Swift’s early summer tour. Earlier this month, the 12-time Grammy winner played in the rain to 1:30 a.m. in Nashville, after a four-hour weather delay.
Next comes Swift set to play this upcoming Bank Holiday weekend at Metlife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The singers net worth is estimated at $400 million, but it remains to be seen how much she will make from the tour.
