Will Taylor Swift attend Thursday night’s Chiefs game?
Travis Kelce and his team are starting football season. His other games in recent weeks have been part of what’s called “preseason.”
Taylor Swift was the Chiefs’ good luck charm for most of 2023. She cheered for Travis Kelce in the stands, and they won — all the way to the Super Bowl in February.
Will Taylor be able to see Travis in person when he begins his NFL season in 2024? And how many more games will she be able to attend after that?
Will Taylor Swift attend the first Chiefs game of the 2024 season?
The NFL season kicks off on Thursday, Aug. 5. Millions of Taylor Swift fans have learned this (and much more) about the football subculture since they first started attending Travis Kelce’s Chiefs games in 2023.
Travis Kelce’s team, the Kansas City Chiefs, will kick off their football season by taking on the Baltimore Ravens.
The Chiefs will reportedly have home field advantage. But that doesn’t mean they won’t want the world’s most famous good luck charm on their side, too.
Timing is on her side though: As far as commitments go, Taylor won’t be back on her Eras Tour for a few more weeks, so she could be 100% available to attend Travis’ first game. Hopefully!
The Chiefs biggest cheerleader — and biggest distraction.
In 2023, Taylor Swift attended 13 Chiefs games. 13 is a lucky number for many people, especially Taylor.
We wouldn’t say that his presence inspired the team to victory on the field. But Taylor wore the team’s gear and inspired its millions of fans, willingly or kicking and screaming, to pay more attention to the game by putting their games into existence.
At the same time, Taylor Swift’s presence – and the media coverage of it – angered some misogynistic weirdos who just wanted to watch the game and, it’s supposed, forget about women’s existence for a while.
But let us forget about them!
Earlier in 2024, Taylor Swift attended the Chiefs’ most important game: the Super Bowl
In February, Taylor Swift was the subject of much speculation. She was on the Asian leg of her Eras World Tour, where she performed to massive crowds in sold-out stadiums just like around the world.
But, right after performing in Tokyo, Taylor flew to Las Vegas to see Travis Kelce play in the Super Bowl. Along with her friends and their family, she watched the Chiefs win their second consecutive Super Bowl.
Yes, the Chiefs did win in 2023, as many Swifties learned after the fact. The team and their supporters are hoping for a third consecutive win at the end of this season. But how much of that can Taylor see?
How many Chiefs games will Taylor attend this season? Know her schedule
Taylor Swift hasn’t finished her Eras Tour yet. On October 18, Taylor will perform in Miami – which will mark the start of the latest leg of the tour.
The good news is that she will have four more opportunities to cheer for Travis Kelce and the Chiefs at their football games. That’s assuming she doesn’t have any other scheduling conflicts, she still wants to attend, and she and Travis don’t break up.
Once Taylor is back on tour, she will continue her journey through North America until her tour lands in Vancouver, the production site of some of the best television shows in the world, on December 8. In theory, Taylor should be able to watch the Chiefs play their final four games of the season. (Plus the “playoffs” that take place after (We all learned a lot about football last year)
We’re sure Travis Kelce would love to be with him
Not all professional athletes would like to stand out from the rest because of their girlfriends. High profile NFL stars are usually the most famous people in their respective relationships.
But Taylor Swift is one of the most famous people on the planet. She’s a self-made billionaire. And she’s one of the most influential people on the planet.
While it might be a bit humbling for Travis Kelce to know that millions of people around the world know that he only exists because of his girlfriend, it seems like he takes it in stride.
UPDATE: Taylor will reportedly attend Travis Kelsey’s first game of the season!
According to a report AthleticTaylor Swift intends to attend Travis Kelsey’s game on Thursday night as the Chiefs take on the Ravens.
While we would never recommend betting on a much-hyped celebrity appearance, there’s no obvious reason to doubt this one. This isn’t like the long-discussed DNC appearance that some expected.
Sports fans can either be excited to see Taylor or dread her. Taylor Swift is inescapable.
