Taylor Swift caused quite a ruckus last week after attending a Kansas City Chiefs Game at the request of tight end Travis Kelce. The two got the rumor mill going. Now Swift seems to be doubling down, having attended another Chiefs game on Sunday night in New York.

This time around, Swift brought a host of her friends with her. Among her squad were Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and Sabrina Carpenter. Swift, Lively, and Reynolds have been friends for years. Lively directed the music video for Swift’s Red (Taylor’s Version) cut, “I Bet You Think About Me.” Carpenter recently opened up for Swift on her Eras Tour.

Just like the last game she attended, Swift was seen with Kelce’s mother, Donna, in a box seat on Sunday (October 1). Swift and her group were filmed by fans watching the game, further confirming a possible connection between the football player and the world-renowned pop star.
After Swift’s first appearance at a Chiefs game, she reportedly boosted sales of Kelce’s jersey by 400 percent.
“Yesterday, Travis Kelce was one of the top five selling NFL players and saw a nearly 400% spike in sales throughout the Fanatics network of sites, including NFLShop.com,” a spokesperson for the NFL’s official e-commerce partner Fanatics said.
According to Kelce, he first attempted to cross paths with Swift while attending her show at the Arrowhead Stadium back in July. “She doesn’t meet anybody, or at least she didn’t want to meet me, so I took it [personally],” Kelce said on an episode of his New Heights podcast. “But it was an unbelievable show. Kansas City showed out. Everybody was dressed in pink and purple, going crazy for her.
“Well, I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” he continued. “So I was a little butt-hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”
Nevertheless, it seems he and Swift have connected–much to the enjoyment of Swifties and sports fans alike.
