An Uber driver picked up some of the best possible passengers on Saturday, leading to a spectacular night at a Taylor Swift concert.

Driver Khalil Calixte picked up three teenage girls at Grand Central Terminal in New York City on the night of a Taylor Swift concert across the river at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. Calixte was just supposed to take them across the city to Penn Station, until the girls blasted TSwift and Calixte sang along, according to Business Insider.

A friend of the girls had backed out on the concert at the last minute so they had an extra ticket. And not just any ticket — they were going to the concert VIP. Seeing Calixte singing along to Swift as they were driving, the girls decided to simply invite him to the concert with him. He picked up an extra tab as he took them past Penn Station to MetLife Stadium, and the VIP tickets included free parking.

The newly-formed crew spent the evening shake-shake-shaking it off and enjoying themselves at Swift's concert.

"I felt like I knew them for a long time and we created a bond, and it was really fun," Calixte said.

Swift's tour has been causing excitement and exuberance at every stop as she brings out a different surprise guest on stage, including Jason Derulo, Lena Dunham, Lorde and Gigi Hadid. The cities she stops in have been getting in on the hype as well.

A weatherman in DC prepared for Swift's stop there on Monday by giving his forecast a Swift-ian twist.

"This rain keeps on cruising. Can't stop, won't stop movin'," Mike Thomas, the weatherman, said.

Thomas did the entire forecast quoting lyrics from different Swift songs. She appreciated the effort, tweeting "Never change, Mike the weatherman. Never change."

"Hey haters, you can leave some hate hate hate down in the comment section below," the weatherman finished up.
