It seems like Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end and part-time Taylor Swift dance enthusiast, had a bit of competition in the Swiftie department this weekend. While Kelce was getting his groove on at Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” in Indianapolis, there was a fan who had him beat on the fangirl meter: none other than WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark.
Clark, who has already made her mark on the basketball court, decided to show off her other talents—like knowing every word to Swift’s hits. Kelce, on his podcast New Heights, spilled the beans on meeting Clark and her diehard love for Swift. “She’s a Swiftie through and through,” Kelce gushed, probably feeling like an amateur in comparison. “She had already been to like, her third or fourth show. I mean, come on! I just got there for night two and she’s already a veteran by night one.”
Clearly, when Clark isn’t dropping dimes or breaking ankles on the court, she’s out here collecting Taylor Swift concerts like they’re basketball trophies. Kelce, who usually has the crowd roaring at Arrowhead Stadium, was now playing second fiddle to Clark’s Swiftie dedication. “She was into the show, for sure,” Kelce continued, giving Clark the nod as the undisputed MVP of Swifties. “She had her mom and some friends with her. She’s just living her best life going to these shows.”
Kelce didn’t hold back in his admiration for Clark, both as a basketball phenom and as a fellow Swiftie, admitting that he’s a fan of hers. And let’s be real—it’s nice to see Kelce, usually catching touchdowns, also catching some fanboy moments for a change.
Jason Kelce’s VIP Experience: Defending Family Honor (and Smashing Phones)
Meanwhile, if you thought the Kelce family was having a quiet weekend, think again. While Travis was busy fanboying over Taylor Swift and Caitlin Clark, his brother Jason Kelce was having a very different VIP experience—one that involved more smashing than singing.
According to Travis, Jason was minding his own business at the Penn State vs. Ohio State game when some bold fan decided to bring up a homophobic slur aimed at Travis. Not a great decision, because what followed was Jason smashing the fan’s phone, probably leaving the guy with no evidence of his poor life choices.
Travis didn’t mince words on the New Heights podcast, calling the incident exactly what it was: a guy trying to start trouble, and Jason stepping in to shut it down. “You had some clown come up to you talking about your family,” Travis said. “You reacted in a way that defended your family, and yeah, maybe some words were exchanged that shouldn’t have been, but hey—family first.”
In true Kelce fashion, the brothers handled it with a mix of support and regret, with Travis backing his brother’s intentions, while still acknowledging that Jason’s phone-smashing moment was probably not his finest.
So, to recap: Travis Kelce may have moves on the field, but when it comes to being a Swiftie, Caitlin Clark has him beat by a mile. Meanwhile, Jason Kelce is out here smashing phones and defending his brother’s honor, because if you mess with one Kelce, you’re messing with the whole squad. Maybe next time that fan should just ask for an autograph instead.
