Ina Garten Details Playing Beer Pong at a Taylor Swift’s After Party

The Barefoot Contessa’s feeling 22, at least when Taylor Swift’s around.
“I’m crazy about Taylor Swift,” Ina Garten told WSJ. Magazine in her new cover story. “After the show she invited us to go to a party that she gave for all of the crew.”
And at said after party—which appeared to be for Swift’s 1989 tour in 2015 based on context clues—Ina said that she was asked to play beer pong when soccer star Abby Wambach, fresh off her World Cup win, approached her to serve as a mentor.
“She said, ‘I’m gonna be your advisor.’ And I was like, ‘Great! What’s your advice?’” Garten recalled. “And she said, ‘Get the f–king ball in the f–king cup.’ And I said, ‘That’s your advice?’”
And while she may have been new to beer pong, Garten, who has her own line of cocktail recipes, is no stranger to drinking games. In fact in February 2019, she participated in Seth Meyer’s “Day Drinking” sketch for Late Night.
Cracking up at the late-night host’s antics, Garten quipped at the time, “I’m in big trouble,” as Meyers downed numerous cocktails in broad daylight.
