A few days back, during his podcast episode, Pro Bowler, Travis asserted “I was a nose away from winning that f—ing thing, dude.” In addition, Travis disclosed that he bet on Number 11 and “a little bit” on Number 2 to win the race at Churchill Downs in Louisville. And, he added that he was incredibly close to winning $100,000 as he put a bet on a Japanese horse at the Kentucky Derby. Unfortunately, Travis has to face defeat in the event, as Mystik Dan clinched the triumph by defeating Sierra Leone and Forever Young by only a nose apiece.

Travis was pictured at this race on May 4, as he joined multiple celebrities. Jimmy Fallon also posted a video on Instagram with Travis, reminiscing about the event. However, the NFL star attended the horse racing event solely without his significant other, Taylor Swift, as she seemed busy with her next ‘Eras Tour’. Travis also carried a navy blue colored fedora hat that perfectly suited his look. Apart from that, he also flaunted his signature diamond hoop earrings and his perfect matching tie completed his look.
