Travis Kelsey is taking care of 2024 Super Bowl mainstay Taylor Swift and her family.
After the Chiefs’ star tight end said on his New Heights podcast earlier this week that he was “counting how much money I’m going to spend on this damn Super Bowl for my family and friends to come.” TMZ reported on Saturday. Kelce will be the one picking up the supporter’s suite tab at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Sunday.
When Kanas City takes on the San Francisco 49ers, Kelce will be looking to win his third Super Bowl and second straight, and it will be a family affair.
According to reports, Swift, her mother Andrea, father Scott, brother Austin, and girlfriend Sydney will also be joining Kelsey’s mother Donna, father Ed, brother Jason and wife Kylie in Sin City. That’s what it means.
Swift will fly to Las Vegas for the Super Bowl immediately after finishing her Ellas Tour concert in Tokyo on Saturday night.
Prices for the suite of games are expected to range from $800,000 to $2 million. According to tick pickan online marketplace for event tickets.
According to the outlet, Kelce’s price tag is well over $1 million.
Kelce’s base salary this season is $12 million.
“I haven’t really done anything different other than just count how much money I’m spending on this damn Super Bowl for my family and friends to come. Make sure my finances are sound. You lose all this money just to do it,” Kelce, 34, said on the podcast.
All of this should allay Donna Kelsey’s concerns about the possibility of sitting in the stands, a possibility she expressed during an appearance on the “Today” show on Wednesday.
“I think you can understand that the box in Las Vegas is millions of dollars, but I feel like I’m not in the box,” Donna said. “I feel like I’m in the stands. … As far as I’m concerned, this is an expensive Super Bowl, so I’m in the stands with everyone else.”
All of this happened after 49ers star Christian McCaffrey “rejected” his fiancée Olivia Culpo’s attempt to buy a Super Bowl suite for his family.
“She tried to do that, but I’m not going to pay anyone to watch me play. It had to stop,” McCaffrey said. told Extra on opening night of the Super Bowl on Monday.
WFAN’s Boomer Esiason also put forward a far-fetched theory this week that Swift would wait to see if the NFL was willing to pay for her to attend a game, but it appears Kelce will be paying for seats at the big game. Looks like I’ll have to.
This will be the 13th Chiefs game Swift has attended since the two started dating this summer.
Kickoff is set for Sunday at 6:30pm ET.
