What to know

• A country music star purchased a guitar from a fan through Facebook Marketplace without the seller knowing their identity beforehand.
• The fan discovered who the buyer was only when they met in person at the agreed meetup location.
• The story was syndicated across multiple regional news outlets on the same day.

“When the fan arrived at the agreed-upon meetup spot, he realized the man buying his instrument was a household name.”
