After months of rumors, speculation, and internet detectives using circumstantial evidence and the tiniest of bread crumbs to determine the validity of Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce’s romance with pop star Taylor Swift, the 33-year-old megastar finally showed up to a game at Arrowhead Stadium.
Though this does not confirm the rumors, Swift’s presence right next to Travis’s mom, Donna Kelce, and enthusiasm as Kelce pointed to her in the stands as he ran out of the tunnel and following he scored a touchdown definitely give the rumors more ground to stand on. Swift was also seen leaving the game with Kelce when all was said and done.
Swift’s fans, better known as “Swifties,” are known for their fanaticism. Swift is in the midst of her Eras Tour, which started on March 17 earlier this year, and she has sold out nearly every stadium she has attended on this tour.
Her fans are passionate, rabid fanatics, and anyone attached to Swift is bound for newfound fame, even someone as big as Travis Kelce.

How did T-Swift’s appearance affect Travis Kelce jersey sales?
According to a report from TMZ SportsKelce jerseys are “selling like hotcakes” following Sunday’s game. Fanatics told TMZ that Kelce was one of the five highest-selling NFL jerseys over the last 24 hours and saw a 400 percent increase in sales in that span.
Travis Kelce already knew stardom all too well. Not only is Kelce an eight-time Pro Bowler, four-time First Team All-Pro, and two-time Super Bowl champion, but his podcast New Heights with his brother, Jason Kelce, a center for the Philadelphia Eagles, has been one of the most popular sports podcasts in America for several months now. Landing Taylor Swift just sends Kelce from a 9 out of 10 on the celebrity scale to a 20.
Boardroom also noted that Kelce saw his Instagram following increase by 250,000 this past week, with 80,000 followers jumping on board Sunday.
When will we see Taylor Swift at another NFL game?
It’s impossible to predict. Who knows? By next week, the pair’s courtship might already be over. However, should their affair blossom into something greater, the next game we might see Taylor Swift at would be the Chiefs’ next home game, October 12, once morest the Broncos.
Of course, Swift might show up at either of the Chiefs’ two road games in between now and then, but given Swift’s affiliation with Kelce, odds are she’d rather go to a game where she would be cheered rather than booed. She is used to thousands of adoring fans, not rivals, following all.
The Chiefs next game will be Sunday Night Football on October 1 once morest the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium. Players, fans, coaches, and announcers are sure to keep their eyes peeled for a Swift showing up.
