‘Went to the strip club, came out… it was gone!’: Travis Kelce remembers getting a pickup truck from brother Jason… before it was stolen just 10 HOURS later after a wild night out
The Kelce brothers are hands down the most entertaining siblings playing in the NFL…and the duo remembered a classic story about how Jason gifted Travis a brand new pickup only to have it stolen from a strip club on the same day that he gave it away.
The recollection of the story took place on the brothers’ podcast “New Heights,” with Shannon Sharpe guesting on this week’s episode of the show.
Jason, 35, and who is two years older than his younger sibling, was drafted into the NFL while Travis was still a student at the University of Cincinnati. He thought he would buy his little brother a nice gift to celebrate reaching the pros.
“When he joined the league, he worked at a car dealership in Philly, [though prior to that] he just bought a brand new F-150,” Travis said.
“Being me, I totaled the car I had in college, so I walked around campus. He knew I needed a car, [so] he drives his F-150 down, knowing he would get a car from a dealership to drive through Philadelphia.”

After getting a new truck to go somewhere, Travis’ first destination was, of course, the local strip club.
“I was like ‘Oh man, I have a really nice car. ‘I wasn’t even traveling [before] because I had this kind of hooptie, that just took me to campus and back,” Travis added.
So I’ll take the car. Within the first 10 hours of having the vehicle, I went to Cleveland, visited the Boom Boom Room, went to the strip club, came out again, that car was gone.”
The 33-year-old tight end, who has made a lot of money in salary since his college days, is having a great season with the Kansas City Chiefs, after defeating the Philadelphia Eagles in this year’s Super Bowl game.

Jason, on the other hand, was on the losing side of this year’s big game in Arizona. He plays center for the Eagles and is a five-time All Pro, though he has been on the brink of retirement since the last game of the 2022 postseason.
As both siblings look back on their younger days, it became clear that Travis had been thinking about a cover to tell Jason after learning he had lost the lavish gift given to him by his older brother.
Jason revealed that Travis left the keys in the truck, though Travis brought up an important detail that seemed to have cleared his name in the heat of the incident.
“He didn’t tell me there was a spare key in the glove compartment,” Travis said. “I had the key, I just didn’t lock the car.”
