The NFL star plays for the Philadelphia Eagles as a center. Therefore, it seemed natural for a Philly to come in support of the Phillies. The 34-year-old player not only came to show his support for the Phillies but also to hype up the fans as they cheered.
Jason Kelce got pretty successful!!
Before the game started, Kelce wanted to keep the crowd going and became pretty successful at it as well. The crowd’s noise kept getting higher and higher as Jason hyped them up for doing so.

He made it known that he was the person to do the job right, and so he did. Not only this but when the Phillies mascot came towards him, he got offered a can of beer. Which, as he should have, bent down one knee and chugged the whole beer down in a go.

He did one more thing. He came in to show his support for the Phillies, but might or might not have thought of working as a lucky charm for the team. And he did. He became the lucky charm of the Phillies, as they won game 3 of the NLCS, giving them a lead of 2-1. The team who will be making it to the World Series will be the one that wins the most games in a seven-game series.
Game 4 has happened already at Citizens Bank Park. And the Phillies have won the game, increasing their lead to three. Three games are now left, but if the Phillies won the next game as well, they’ll directly head toward the World Series.
