Taylor Swift managed to make Fast Life Yungstaz’s (F.Y.L.) 2009 cult favorite hit, “Swag Surfin,” a hot topic over the weekend.
On Saturday (January 13), Swift and NFL player Travis Kelce’s mother, Donna, went viral after Kelce shared a video of them dancing to F.Y.L.’s classic track in front of a large crowd. It’s quite puzzling how Swift is familiar with the “Swag Surfin’” dance while the person running the NFL social media account seems completely out of touch with this pop phenomenon. However, fans and viewers certainly noticed.
“LMAOOOOO TAYLOR SWAG SURF GOT ME CRYIN,” one Twitter user posted alongside the clip, to which another replied, “I’m irritated because I feel like Travis also probably tried to show her at home.”
The rigidly traditional MAGA (Make America Great Again) supporters were also upset by Swift unabashedly enjoying an element of Black culture during a heavily regulated sports broadcast.
“Apparently the MAGA cult is very triggered that Taylor Swift was having fun at a football game last night, so I’ll post the clip again for them,” another user remarked.
Some even saw Swift’s “Swag Surfin’” as a direct challenge for a dance-off.
“Wait… Taylor Swift tryna have a Swag Surf off with me???!!!! ???,” a user wrote in another tweet.

Overall, the response to T-Swift’s “Swag Surfin’” became a running joke on social media, with people humorously referring to her moves as “white water rafting” and even poking fun at Kelce for cuffing the singer. Even J. Cole’s manager, Ibrahim, couldn’t help but react to a user’s comment about the couple post #T-SwiftSwagSurfin’Gate.
“Travis Kelce can’t catch s### since he been palming them little ass Taylor Swift cheeks,” the user wrote.
