The Super Bowl LVIII was a nail-biting affair. Regulation time ended with both teams stuck at the same score. And in the end, the Chiefs painted the Allegiant Stadium red with a 25-22 overtime victory. Andy Reid’s squad has become the first team to win back-to-back Super Bowls in two decades. Congratulations poured in from every corner of America. From the upper echelons of politics to other sports, Hillary Clinton is the latest name to join the thread.
While Barack Obama graced the Chiefs, the former US Secretary of State posted a rather Taylor Swift-centric message for the team. While most agreed that it was due to the efforts of the players that the team won, Clinton chose specific credits in her congratulatory post, which soon became a hotspot for hilarious comments from fans.

Adding an unexpected twist to the Super Bowl buzz, Hillary Clinton’s congratulatory message to Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs has stirred quite the commotion online. The former Secretary of State took an unconventional route in her shout out, officially joining the NFL’s ‘Taylor Swift effect’ thread. Whether it’s a playful poke or a genuine Taylor Swift fan post, only Clinton can tell.
Congratulations to Taylor's boyfriend—and the entire Kansas City Chiefs community! 💕🏈
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) February 12, 2024
In her message, Hillary Clinton wrote, “Congratulations to Taylor’s boyfriend – and the entire Kansas City Chiefs community!”—a playful nod to Kelce’s relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift. This post left internet users both amused and in disbelief. Some found it funny, while others questioned if it was posted from a parody account. One user even commented, “Can’t believe this tweet is real.”
Adding to the chatter, another user joked, “Taylor Swift knows a winning team when she picks it… Kansas City – AND – the Democrats For The Win!” Another wrote, “NO WAY YOU AND BIDEN ARE STRATEGICALLY TROLLING THIS ISN’T GONNA GO THE WAY YOU THINK BRO.” Some users also sneaked in a few “rigged game“ comments, such as “How many emails did you delete over this rigged game?”
Mrs. Clinton’s unexpected shout-out has made waves in the online just like the former President’s “Grace under pressure” post.

Former president Barack Obama also congratulated the Chiefs on winning the game. He especially gave props to HC Reid, Mahomes, Kelce, and Hardman for exhibiting “grace under pressure”. But we’re sure the best appreciation for Kelce came from none other than his beau, Taylor Swift.
Congrats to the Kansas City @Chiefs, MVP Patrick Mahomes, Coach Reid, Travis Kelce, Chris Jones, Mecole Hardman, and the rest of the champs for another Lombardi Trophy. Grace under pressure.
