In this high-stakes atmosphere, an amusing subplot has emerged involving the Kelce brothers. At the Super Bowl LV III, Travis was asked about the possibility of Jason Kelce’s signature stunt at Allegiant Stadium.
Travis Kelce, who recently earned the nickname of Big Yeti for outshining the basketball court, did not hesitate to predict how things might turn out in Vegas if that happens.
In a lighthearted exchange, Travis Kelce addressed queries regarding his brother Jason’s signature shirtless celebration. His response summarised the spontaneity and passion the Kelce brothers share for football.

Travis Kelce’s Super Bowl 58 Opening Night conversation with the media stole the spotlight due to a playful conversation. When asked if Jason Kelce would go shirtless at the Super Bowl, the Chiefs’ TE tried deflecting the attention by saying, “You know what, that’s a question for Jason.”

At the same time, he also expressed his surprise at Jason’s previous shirtless incident. Kelce said, “I was every bit of surprised after that buffalo came, I think everybody was when the camera panned to him.” Later, he delved into the connection that they have with the sport. He added, “It’s just who he is, he enjoys the game of football. I think the desire, the love that we have for the game since we were kids, it oozes out of us and we can’t help that.”
He added, “Sure enough, unbelievable fan base like Buffalo, I think it was a fun experience.” Finally, with a hint of humor, ‘Big Yeti’ concluded by saying, “I don’t know if the Vegas crowd is going to make him want to take his shirt off.” During the Chiefs vs. Bills game in January, Jason managed to steal the show when he ripped off his T-shirt after Travis had scored a touchdown during the first half of the game.
The Kelce brothers truly have a charismatic personality that has resulted in a massive fanbase. Not just Jason Kelce, Travis Kelce also grabbed everyone’s attention but this time, the reason wasn’t Taylor Swift. It was about how Travis Kelce earned the nickname, Big Yeti.
In a recent episode on their “New Heights” podcast, they delved into Travis Kelce’s basketball days at Cincinnati. Travis described his rugged appearance while playing pickup basketball. He said, “The big beard, long hair, chest hair, back hair, arm hair, leg hair,” all of these, led his friends to dub him “just a big ole Yeti out there, man.”
