A Nashville resident has delighted internet viewers by revealing the adorable four-legged “tourist trap” she recently discovered.
Caroline Clark was headed to her favorite wine bar in Nashville, Tennessee, when she spotted a colorful signpost reading “BEANZ” outside someone’s yard. Indeed, there wasn’t just one sign either, as there were multiple frames dotted along the fence.
Clark told Newsweek that she initially thought they were “growing beans in their garden” as it was all so pretty and serene. But then she noticed the actual tourist attraction that all the signposts were really for, and she couldn’t get enough.
Indeed, it wasn’t beans they were growing in their yard, but rather, an adorable golden retriever named Beanz. The colorful frames allow him to poke his head through the fence and receive all the fuss and attention from passersby.
“They had a lot of really lovely landscaping, and as I was admiring that, Beanz popped out of nowhere, and it all came together that his owners were giving him the opportunity to be social,” Clark said.
Despite already running late for her plans at Butterlamp, a bread and wine bar, Clark said she couldn’t resist staying with Beanz for several minutes. She happily stayed there chatting and petting the golden retriever, who certainly made her date night even more memorable.
Clark captured a video of her “fave tourist trap” in Nashville and shared it on TikTok (@themotleycaro). Needless to say, internet users are obsessed with Beanz, and the clip has gone viral with over 272,000 views and more than 52,000 likes on TikTok at the time of writing.
“He’s an angel, and, since posting, so many neighbors have shared how much they love Beanz too and walk by just to say hi,” Clark continued.
There is no doubt that the golden retriever loves all the attention he gets as well; Clark said she could tell how much of a “social love bug” he truly is.
From now on, every time she returns to Butterlamp, Clark will absolutely be on the lookout for Beanz.
She said: “Everyone is obsessed. Some are locals who are hoping to find him, and others are considering finding him when they travel into town. Hopefully, his newfound fame will bring him many more joyful interactions.”
With over 215 comments on the viral TikTok video, internet users have praised this adorable idea, and many are desperate to visit the newest tourist hotspot in town.
One comment on the post reads: “wait I’ll be in Nashville next weekend, where do I find Beanz!”
Another TikTok user wrote: “This is a tourist trap I can get behind!”
A third person posted: “Where is this golden opportunity?”
One comment added: “Now, for this, I’d wait in line for hours.”
