In a recent episode of the New Heights podcast, brothers Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce delved into the realm of Super Bowls, prompting Travis to share a fascinating anecdote involving a renowned musician and his allegiance to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Following the Chiefs' triumphant victory against the San Francisco 49ers in the 2020 Super Bowl, Travis, along with fellow teammate Patrick Mahomes, found themselves attending a concert by none other than Post Malone in Kansas City. Still riding the waves of their celebratory victory parade, the duo admitted that they were 's---faced' when they encountered the acclaimed artist.
Prior to Malone's performance, the 'Circles' singer proposed a friendly game of beer pong, with Travis and Mahomes eagerly accepting the challenge. As the game progressed, it became apparent that the two football players were outshining Malone with their beer pong skills, igniting a competitive spirit within the Grammy nominee.
Encouraged by the playful banter, Malone suggested a wager — if he lost, he would get tattoos of Travis and Mahomes' signatures. While Travis and Mahomes insisted that Malone need not follow through on the bet, the singer, who has been adorning his body with ink since 2015, proved his integrity.
Eager to fulfill his promise, Malone had a tattoo artist conveniently present in the backstage area. Once the game concluded, Travis shared that both he and Mahomes autographed a piece of paper as proof of their victory. True to his word, Malone promptly sought out the tattoo artist and had their signatures permanently etched onto his skin. Further showcasing his loyalty to the Chiefs, Malone also had the team's logo inked somewhere on his body.
Mahomes lent his own perspective to the story during an interview with GQ in July 2020, attesting to Malone's commitment to the bet and praising his integrity.
This, however, was not the conclusion of Malone's affiliation with the championship-winning team. Following this year's game in Las Vegas, during which he performed a soul-stirring rendition of 'America the Beautiful,' Malone partook in an afterparty where Brittany Mahomes, Patrick's wife, replaced the Dallas Cowboys bomber jacket he was wearing with a Chiefs garment, as depicted in a snapshot captured by PEOPLE magazine.
Post Malone's unwavering support for the Kansas City Chiefs and his heartfelt commitment to the bet he made with Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes have not gone unnoticed. Fans of the team, as well as admirers of the musician, are undoubtedly impressed by his dedication and willingness to honor his word. With his memorable tattoos and public displays of loyalty, it seems clear that Post Malone will continue to be a devoted Kansas City Chiefs fan for years to come.
