CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio — The winds off Lake Erie were gusting at 5 below zero. Snow dusted everything. Joe D’Amato, the athletic director at Cleveland Heights High, bundled into his coat and walked from the school’s east exit through biting air to the football field not 70 feet away.
“This,” D’Amato said, standing at the 50-yard-line aside the black and gold Tiger Nation logo, “is where they played.”
Of course, he is talking about Travis and Jason Kelce, arguably the most decorated pair of graduates to ever stride the halls of Heights High, class of 2008 and 2006, both previous Super Bowl champions headed there again. On Sunday, when they meet in Arizona for Super LVII, they will make National Football League history as the first brothers to face each other in the big game — dubbed by some “The Kelce Bowl.”
