Taylor Swift Fantasy Football Game 'Swiftball' Viral: is THIS Gambling?

Taylor Swift, 33, recently finished the US leg of her Eras Tour after entertaining thousands of Swifties who managed to score tickets to the sold-out performances since April. Outside the boundaries of the stadium, viewers are tuning into livestreams on TikTok to see the hitmaker perform the greatest singles from her 17-year career.

Some are even playing Swiftball, a fantasy football-style game where players forecast various aspects of each event. Apparently, while fantasy football players are about to choose their starting lineups, the season is already well underway for Taylor Swift followers.

Swiftball was started on Twitter by Allie, a Swiftie who saw Taylor perform in New Jersey in May, in an effort to give a worthy fan an extra copy of the singer's Midnights album.

Swifties from all over the world compete in Allie Fantasy Swiftball for Taylor-themed prizes that have been given by the fans. Fans could guess which dresses, instruments, songs, and other items will be featured during the next performance by filling out a fantasy ballot she prepared for her "one-time giveaway." However, the game gained popularity and more than 18,000 fans played it last week.

Even last weekend, when thanking supporters for "following this tour like it's your favorite sport," Taylor seemed to make reference to the game. Prior to each show, players complete a ballot using a Google Doc.

The 24 questions on the ballot, worth a total of 113 points, ask voters to guess what the Bad Blood singer will do at the next stop on the tour. Swifties will make predictions on Taylor's stage attire and the color of her instrument when she performs the song "Lover."

They also attempt to forecast more improbable aspects of the performance, such as the singer's choice of two surprise songs, the presence of any special guests, and the duration of the standing ovation following Champagne Problems. Before Taylor enters the stage, fans can make changes to their Swiftball lineup, but once she starts to sing, the ballots are closed.

Many Swifties will watch livestreams of the event being broadcast by fans who are actually in the audience so they can track the results of their votes in real time. Most evenings, Allie tweets updates while different aspects of the concert take place. The following day, she and her Swiftball crew would announce the victors.

Taylor Swift's highly anticipated The Eras Tour's first leg came to an exciting conclusion this past week as she took the stage to make a significant statement in addition to performing her top-charting hits. Swift said amid the cheers of the audience that 1989 (Taylor's Version), a remake of her classic album 1989, would soon be released.

The singer-songwriter's most recent re-recording and re-release project, which is part of a series, gained worldwide attention right away.

There are many indications that 1989 (Taylor's Version), which is scheduled for release in late October, could end up being Swift's most significant reissue to date. Already regarded as one of Swift's most important albums, 1989 has a particular position in her discographies.

With an astonishing nine million equivalent units sold in the United States, the title is second in her catalog in terms of units moved. While Fearless has attained the coveted 10-times platinum level, often known as diamond status, 1989 has a special claim to fame of its own.
