The best of the internet is coming to St. Petersburg.

Sure, Mets fans brought their usual misery to Haliey Welch’s recent first pitch, but the reception should be much warmer when the personality better known as “Hawk Tuah Girl" comes to St. Pete this month.

Welch, if you’ve been living under a rock, entered the hearts and dirty minds of Americans last June when social media street interviewers Tim & Dee TV posted a video asking her "What's one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?"

In her now-trademark Southern drawl, the 22-year-old answered: "Oh, you gotta give him that hawk tuah and spit on that thang! You get me?"

A national search ensued, as doomscrollers obsessed over her identity and memers remixed and shared “Hawk Tuah Girl” to infamy.

Welch signed with an agency in July and has been front-and-center online since then, popping up on podcasts, onstage with country-music-it-boy Zach Bryan, and even in Tampa in July for a boxing match featuring YouTuber Jake Paul.

The Tennessee native—who’s also using her fame to help a youth homeless shelter in Los Angeles—has since amassed millions of followers on social media, and, apparently, party appearances, too. There’s even “Hawk Tuah” merch for sale.

Welch will appear at Welcome To The Farm, located at 242 1st Ave. N in St. Petersburg on Friday, Aug. 30, according to the venue, which is co-owned by “Drinkin’ Beer. Talkin’ God. Amen." singer Chase Rice.
