Taylor Swift Supports Boyfriend Travis Kelce at His New Year’s Eve Game

Pop star Taylor Swift was at Arrowhead Stadium for the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the Bengals, supporting her boyfriend Travis Kelce. She was wearing a duplicate of one of Kelce’s jackets, designed by Jeff Hamilton, which he wore on Christmas Day. It was composed of white wool and black leather sleeves, with NFL and helmet patches sewn onto it, and red letters spelling out “Chiefs” across the back.

There were slight variations in the collar, cuffs, and hem, but it was clearly a nod to her man’s football-influenced style.

Swift was also there on Christmas Day, when Travis Kelce’s team lost to the Raiders. The Eras Tour singer watched the game with Kelce’s dad, Ed, and her parents, Scott and Andrea, as well as her brother, Austin. After the game, Swift and Kelce were photographed leaving the stadium hand-in-hand. Though it wasn’t a great start to the day for Kelce, he said on a special family edition of his podcast New Heights that Swift and her family turned it around.

In the episode released on December 29, Jason Kelce’s wife Kylie Kelce asked how the game went, and he admitted it was bad.

“F—, the worst,” Travis said. “I’m not gonna lie. I’ve had better. But it ended well! It ended well with good Christmas cheer and great people.”

He added, “That’s always going to save Christmas. No matter if you lose to the Raiders or not.”

During the Raiders game, Austin was watching from the VIP box wearing a Santa Claus costume, and Kelce revealed he wore the outfit post-game as well to hand out presents.

“He actually made me feel like a child,” he said. “because his gift to me was straight out of the bag.”

Kylie asked, “Like the Santa sack? It was in the Santa sack?”

“It was in the Santa sack. Whipped it out. He handed me a VHS of my favorite football movie of all-time. He killed it,” said Kelce adding that the gift was a copy 1994’s Little Giants.
