Fans React As Travis Kelce gets BOOED and heckled by rival NFL fans at Kentucky Derby: “He just couldn’t wrap his head around it”
There are some big reputations at the Kentucky Derby this year: Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was spotted at the 150th run for the roses.
Kelce was also sighted at Sports Illustrated’s Revel At the Races event, which took place at the Ice House in downtown Louisville Friday night. Kelce was with his friends, The Chainsmokers, and danced all evening with a group at an exclusive table, according to a press release from RMG PR.
At the Derby Saturday, Kelce was spotted wearing a white, pinstripe suit reminiscent of 1920s fashion. On his head, he wore a dark blue fedora. There were rumors in the days leading up to the Derby that his superstar girlfriend Taylor Swift could also be in attendance Saturday, along with Kelce’s brother Jason.
Swift begins performing her Eras Tour in Paris, France, later this week. Social media reports Saturday said her private plane had been tracked to Paris.
Swift has been busy for the last year: her Eras Tour was the first time the singer toured since 2018, selling out shows around the world. She made further headlines in 2023 after taking her romance with Kelce public.
And just two weeks ago, Swift released her 11th studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” which broke streaming records.
The Kelce brothers have been in the spotlight too, with Travis signing a contract extension that makes him the highest paid tight end in the NFL, and a Super Bowl win. Jason retired from the Philadelphia Eagles after 13 years on the team and will take on a new role at ESPN.
New footage shows a smitten Travis Kelce kissing Taylor Swift’s shoulder at Patrick Mahomes’ charity gala: Oh the extended version is even crazier!! It’s very sweet and nothing but love between the two of the…HE IS INSANE!! WHO DOES THAT??!!!
New footage has emerged showing Travis Kelce kissing Taylor Swift on the shoulder as the couple enjoyed a night out together in Las Vegas.
The Chiefs star and his ‘significant other’ – as he called Swift – were special guests as Patrick Mahomes‘ foundation put on a golf fundraiser in Sin City.
Kelce even flogged four tickets to Swift’s Eras Tour as part of the night’s charity auction, with someone eventually taking them for $80,000.

Now, more footage from the event has now appeared, showing Travis kissing Taylor on the shoulder.
The clip has had more than 1million views on social media, with Swifties finding previous clips when Kelce has shown affection in this way.
‘He always kisses her shoulders it’s so cute,’ one fan said. Another branded it the couple’s ‘love language’.
Kelce also had a treat for those in attendance at The 15 and the Mahomies Foundation Vegas Golf Classic gala.
‘I was just talking to my significant other,’ he said before revealing the tickets to Swift’s Eras Tour. ‘We might have one other auction item that wasn’t on the docket.’
Kelce had another surprise for his fans on Monday, when he agreed to a two-year contract extension with the Chiefs.
In an emotional video to confirm the deal, which makes him the NFL’s highest-paid tight end, Kelce hinted he will remain in Kansas City for the rest of his career.
‘Chiefs forever,’ he said in the clip, which was posted to X. ‘Back at it again, baby. Had to see a little Super Bowl right here man,’ he went on, pointing to his Super Bowl LVIII hat.
Kelce, now 34, has helped the Chiefs to back-to-back Vince Lombardi trophies.
‘It feels good to be in KC. I remember coming here 12 years ago, man. It’s an honor and a pleasure and I can’t wait to get after it these next two years,’ he added.
‘No better than right now. Getting fired up for this year. Just got out on the field with the boys, we’re back at it baby.’
