Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs have made it to the Super Bowl – meaning Taylor Swift will make a mad dash from Tokyo to Las Vegas to watch her boyfriend battle for football’s ultimate prize on February 11.
America’s most famous couple hugged and kissed on the field at the M&T Bank Stadium in the aftermath of a magnificent victory for the Chiefs over Baltimore Ravens – who were strong favorites to win the game before it began.
Kelce found his girlfriend as he waited for the AFC Championship trophy presentation in emotional scenes and Swift looked almost tearful as the couple had a moment to celebrate together with the eyes of the world on them. And when Kelce duly got on stage and took the mic, he was euphoric – channeling the Beastie Boys by shouting: ‘You’ve got to fight for your right to party!’.
Swift plays four nights of her blockbuster Eras Tour in Japan’s capital from February 7-10 before now having to race back to the Allegiant Stadium on the west coast for the biggest night in America’s sporting calendar next month.
She will travel thousands of miles to make the game, before heading on to Melbourne Australia for the next leg of her tour dates that start just five days after the Super Bowl. The time difference works in her favor on her return from Japan, though and it will be the 13th Chiefs game this season that Swift will have cheered the team on for – her lucky number.
But with luck on their side or not, judging by Sunday’s showing Kelce and his Chiefs are going to take some stopping after a frankly sensational 17-10 win in Baltimore – the team that most people felt were nailed on to win the Super Bowl, let alone the game today.
Kelce scored a touchdown in the first quarter and went on to pass Jerry Rice’s NFL postseason record of 151 receptions in another magnificent, career-defining display.
Swift was joined by Cara Delevingne in the VIP suite where she cheered the Chiefs on to victory – Jason Kelce was also there, as well as Travis’s parents Donna and Ed.
Travis’s older brother was seen high-fiving friends in the suite after his brother got his touchdowns but his celebrations were extremely subdued compared to the wild scenes last weekend in Buffalo.
The two brothers also had a moment on the field, with the older Kelce wearing a Chiefs wooly hat across the course of the day as he cheered Kansas City on. It one heartwarming picture, Swift was seen looking on and smiling as the Kelce bros shared a laugh together on the field.
‘Finish this motherf***er,’ Jason told Travis as they embraced.
Now, they will all clear their calendar and head to Vegas in two weeks as the Chiefs bid to win the Super Bowl for a second straight season and round out a fairytale campaign that has seen Travis and Taylor become America’s favorite and most famous couple.
Kelce is widely considered as one of, if not the very best, in his position of tight end in NFL history and is now going for his third Super Bowl title.
Last year, it felt impossible for the Kelce family to dominate the headlines any more than they did as Travis and his Chiefs team prepared to play against his brother Jason and the Philadelphia Eagles. Their mom, Donna, hilariously wore a 50-50 jersey made up of Eagles green and Chiefs red to the game.
But this time around, with the added dimension of Swift racing back for the game, Kelce’s star will rise even higher.
The attention doesn’t appear to be a problem for him though after dominating the game today in Baltimore and, overall, enjoying a highly impressive season with the Chiefs.
Kansas City will play the winner of the later game on Sunday between San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions.
The Lions beat the Chiefs in the first game of the NFL season back in September – with Kelce actually missing the game through injury.
