One dad has gone to extreme lengths to win tickets to Taylor Swift's Eras tour for his daughter.
The Daily Mail reported that Luke Porter from West Lakes, Adelaide, decided to get a tattoo of the pop star and Travis Kelce on his bum to win highly coveted Eras tickets for his 12-year-old daughter Jemma.
Right now, the Ali Clarke Breakfast Show on Mix102.3 is running a ‘Parent of the Era’ competition to win flights, accommodation, and two golden tickets to the concert.
The contest required parents to show their dedication to their children in the most creative way possible.
And Luke might just be a shoo-in.

Unless a parent gets T-Swizzle inked on their face, it’s hard to imagine another winner.
Rachel, Luke’s wife, caught wind of the competition while listening to the radio station.
The mother then approached Luke in the early hours of the morning with the bold idea to win tickets.
“I thought I'd nominate my husband to get a tattoo of Taylor Swift on his bum. I asked him when he was half asleep, and he agreed!” Rachel explained.
“So here we are, he is getting a tattoo now and it will always be a funny story for us to tell, especially if they break up!”
What Swifties will do to prove their love.
Earlier this year, in July, one lad even offered a ticket to the pop star’s tour to snag a date.
Screenshots of the anonymous man’s Tinder profile began making the rounds on the internet after he displayed his access to Ticketek’s ‘lounge’ in a photo, indicating that he had a spare ticket.
He captioned the photo: “Need a date for Taylor, thought I better start looking”.
The ploy had many users online divided.
Some said it was creepy, while others deemed it genius.
One Facebook user wrote: “May have to resort to this to be fair.”
Another said: “I’d risk possibly getting murdered for this.”
While a third said: “Even if his plan was to murder me, I would simply ask for him to wait until after (the concert). A win is a win.”
But many were quick to point out that just because the man had shared a screenshot of the Ticketek ‘lounge’, it didn’t necessarily mean he actually had tickets to the concert.
Please get those receipts, girls!
