Travis Kelce Was in Awe of the Reaction Taylor Swift Got From Patriots Fans at Gillette Stadium

Travis Kelce and the Chiefs got a big bounce-back win last Sunday against the Patriots. Once again his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, was there watching her boyfriend from a suite inside the stadium.

Kelce, who was seen checking out a Swift poster near the locker room before the game, told a cool story on this week’s New Heights episode about how awesome of a reaction Swift got when she was shown on the big screen at Gillette Stadium, a place she played three shows at last summer.

“They showed Taylor at the game and you don’t see an entire home team fanbase go insane for somebody wearing the opposite team’s colors,” he said. “Just shows you how amazing that girl is.

”They went absolutely insane when they showed Taylor on the screen,” he added. “There might have been a few Brads and Chads that were booing, but for the most part everybody was f------ screaming their tail off for her. I was trying to keep it cool. I was like, ‘Don’t show your cards, don’t show your cards.’ It was fun.”

That part of the conversation happens at the 47-second mark of this tweet:

“Shoutout to the Patriots and New England,” he said. “Taylor’s on record saying that stadium is one of the funnest she’s played at, so for them to show her is, I guess, showing her some love, so shoutout to the Patriots for doing that.”

The Chiefs have a home game vs. the Raiders on Christmas, and you have to think Swift will be back at Arrowhead for that one, too.
