Why Taylor Swift and the Kelce clan ‘didn’t enjoy’ last season’s trip to Buffalo to watch Chiefs-Bills

The Chiefs may have had the last laugh at the Bills in their last matchup, but Taylor Swift and the Kelce family were reportedly “shocked” by the negative reception they received during last year’s divisional round clash in Buffalo.

Kansas City earned a 27-24 victory in the playoff game, with Jason Kelce seen shirtless and drinking a beer while celebrating a touchdown from his brother Travis’ squad.

But according to Adam Lefkoe of Turner Sports, Travis’ friends and family at the game didn’t enjoy their road trip to Highmark Stadium.

“I’ve heard from people close to me that it wasn’t a great experience in Buffalo,” he told Kay Adams about her ‘Up and Adams’ show. ‘It wasn’t that. For all parties involved… And I’m talking about the most famous of all parties,” he continued, with a not-so-subtle nod to Swift.

“I think it kind of shocked the Kelce family and everyone associated with the Kelce family a little bit with the reception they got. I think they said, ‘This is going to be a great game with a lot of energy.’ And when they got there, they experienced Bills Mafia in full form [its[ complete ruthlessness.’

Jason Kelce ripped his shirt off at one point during the game and chugged a beer

 ‘And I think they left and went, ‘I don’t know if I want to experience that again.’ It was that kind of a level of crazy.’

Lefkoe, who covers the NBA for TNT and is a noted Eagles fan, added, ‘I think there are certain fanbases that do their job, which is that when you are a visitor in their place, it is their job to make you uncomfortable.’

The images of Jason Kelce chugging a beer without his shirt on have perhaps become the enduring images of that game, and Adams suggested that moment was evidence of the Kelce clan having a good time.

Lefkoe saw it a different way. 

‘What that is right there is an unbridled man that has been getting cursed at and yelled at for hours, that at the end got to go, ‘How about them apples?,’ he said.

Swift and her friends, including Brittany Mahomes, ultimately got the last laugh as the Chiefs won

Notably, Jason tailgated with Bills fans ahead of their Monday Night Football matchup with the Jets earlier this season. 

According to CBS Sports, ‘the expectation’ is that pop star Swift will be back in Buffalo for a highly-anticipated clash between the 9-0 Chiefs and 8-2 Bills.  

The ‘Fortnight’ singer has actually been performing nearby in Toronto this week, though a league source told CBS Sports that the scheduling was ‘completely unintentional.’

Nonetheless, Swift will hope for a better experience this time around if she attends.
