A packed arena for a Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL) game in Detroit between Boston and Ottawa turned into a singalong as fans both young and old belted out Swift's hit 'You Belong with Me.'

Regarding the universal appeal of global music sensation Taylor Swift, you don't necessarily have to attend a performance of her record-smashing Eras Tour to enjoy her music.

A viral TikTok video showing a crowd bopping along and singing to Swift's uber-popular song "You Belong with Me" took place at a hockey arena in Detroit, Michigan, demonstrating that even sports fans can turn any venue into one of her tour stops.


TikToker Matthew–a.k.a. @michigankid91–posted a video of him enjoying a can of Labatt Blue and bopping along to the banjo-led country pop-crossover hit at Little Ceaser's Arena on March 16.

Matthew wasn't the only one enjoying the radio-friendly tune. He was joined by the entire arena crowd, who belted out the lyrics to the song.

The venue was hosting a match between the Professional Women's Hockey League's Boston and Ottawa franchises.

"You Belong with Me," Swift's signature song and the third single from her 2008 album Fearless, blared through the speakers during a break in the second period with a few minutes left to spare.

Swift's vocals were drowned out by the female-majority crowd of fans that sang along to the lyrics, depicting the relatable topic of young unrequited love.

Select fans were featured on the jumbotron, joyously participating in the sing-along as the lyrics scrolled across the screen karaoke-style, despite an off-camera person noting that displaying lyrics wasn't necessary for such a popular tune.

When the hockey players returned to the ice and the music cut off, the crowd kept singing acapella.

Because you don't just end a Taylor Swift song without at least getting to the first chorus.

You can watch the clip of the overall good time here.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
