A Swiftie skipped work to buy Eras Tour merch and hid their identity with a blanket inspired by the ghosts from Taylor Swift's 'Anti-Hero' music video

• A Swiftie who called in sick to work to buy Eras Tour merch was interviewed on a local news station in Ohio.
• They covered themselves with a fuzzy pink, polka-dotted blanket to conceal their identity.

Taylor Swift fans are proving there's no limit to how far they'll go to support the pop star.

On Friday, two Swifties from Louisville, Kentucky, told WKRC-TV's Annie Brown that they skipped work to get their hands on some Eras Tour merch – and did so without revealing their identities by hiding under a blanket.

One of the Swifties, who sported a pink, polka-dotted blanket, accessorized the look with sunglasses, likely a subtle nod to the "Anti-Hero" music video where Swift interacts with ghosts wearing bed sheets and glasses.

As Insider's Callie Ahlgrim previously reported, the ghosts in the video and the tokens they wear represent pieces of Swift's past.

Meanwhile, as Brown noted at the start of the interview, the anonymous fans drove to Cincinnati ahead of Swift's Eras Tour shows in Ohio, which took place on Saturday and Sunday.

Brown said the pair waited a while for the merch sale, arriving at 2:45 a.m.

Despite the early start, they seemed in good spirits. Asked how much Swift means to them, given they'd gone so far as to take a sick day from work for the occasion, the fan in the duo primarily interviewed by Brown said it's "very true" that they care a lot.

"I almost named my daughter's middle name Taylor," they said.

They said they were attending the Saturday night show with an 11-year-old girl, presumably a relative.

"It's her first time," they said. "She made a bunch of friendship bracelets, I've gotten friendship bracelets here from all these sweet people so I'm very excited."

The blanket-covered Swiftie is one of the many memorable moments from Swift's Eras Tour run.

Viral moments from the concert series include the adorable TikTok of an elderly security guard at one of the Glendale, Arizona Eras Tour shows dancing up a storm and singing along with fans.

More recently, on the second night of her Cincinnati shows, a clip of Swift sprinting off the stage after a malfunction has been doing the rounds on social media.
