Travis Kelce, star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, surprised many by attending Taylor Swift's Eras Tour concert in Indianapolis. Despite the Chiefs' crucial upcoming game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Kelce was present at Lucas Oil Stadium on Saturday night to support his girlfriend. This concert marked the final U.S. leg of Swift's tour, making the occasion extra special.
Addressing his choice on the "New Heights" podcast, Kelce candidly shared that missing the concert was not an option for him. "I wanted to see Tay one more time before this thing got closed up," the 35-year-old stated. His presence at the show was unexpected given the tight schedule, with just two days before their Monday Night Football game.
Kelce recounted his experience from the concert, highlighting the electric atmosphere. He praised the American crowds, pointing out that each of the three shows at Lucas Oil Stadium set new attendance records. "I'll tell you what, man, the American crowds, they did not disappoint," he said. “And man, that thing was rocking.”
Reciprocating Kelce's support, Taylor Swift, along with her mother Andrea, made a swift trip to Kansas City to watch the Chiefs' game against the Buccaneers less than 24 hours after her final performance in Indianapolis. Kelce’s performance in the game was historic; he logged 14 catches for 100 yards, setting a record for most catches by any player in NFL history at age 35 or older.
While the couple will have to endure time apart with Swift heading to Canada to conclude her tour and Kelce continuing his NFL season, their mutual support remains evident. The intersection of their high-profile careers continues to captivate fans and add an interesting dynamic to both the music and sports worlds.
