Travis Kelce’s love story with his fiancée has obviously inspired many, with Taylor Swift’s presence at Arrowhead bringing many new fans into the league. In fact, Swift’s presence at Chiefs games ensured that KC tickets were always completely sold out and the stadium was always full.
Apparently, Swift’s presence in the league also motivated many young girls to take up sports, more specifically football. Some time ago, the league shared pictures of a flag football team of young girls who are ardent Swifties. Travis and Jason managed to discuss this in a recent ‘New Heights’ episode, with the KC Swifties receiving a major shoutout.

“Oh, they’re looking like they’re having a blast. Nice. They looked like 8 to 10, somewhere there. Man, shout out to the KC Swifties, man, good luck this year, and hope you guys win the championship.” Travis Kelce said.

The KC Swifties are doing something phenomenal, even switching their names on the back of their jerseys to Taylor Swift songs. The team is yet to get a shoutout from Swift herself, and fans are eagerly waiting for the day when their icon might even visit the team in person.
While Swift’s influence in the league has been praised immensely by many, there is also a sizable percentage of fans who don’t like her presence in football games. Some feel that because of Swift, many tickets are sold to lukewarm fans who just arrive to football games to see the singer-songwriter.

At the same time, there are also many rumors that the Chiefs enjoy special status in the league because of their connection with Swift. The Chiefs seemed to receive some special favor from the refs at games, for which fans have put them on blast.
Travis Kelce Set To Enjoy Long Honeymoon After Wedding
On another note, Travis Kelce will be able to do some major relaxation after his strenuous wedding to Taylor Swift. The couple is expected to go on a pretty long honeymoon in several different countries once they tie the knot.
The pair’s trip around the world will kick off with the Bahamas and then proceed to Lake Como, where the couple truly realized their love for each other. For Kelce, it will be a great conclusion to the offseason and preparation for his upcoming football campaign with KC, which is expected to be his final one.
