On Sunday night, during the match between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Chicago Bears, the internet went wild as people realized that pop icon Taylor Swift was in the stands. She had come to support and cheer for her rumored boyfriend, Travis Kelce. This created so much buzz that it overshadowed the game, and Taylor Swift became the center of attention.

But there is a story behind this development—a story of rejection and Travis’ persistence. This is the story of how Travis couldn’t get a chance to talk to Swift at her concert and how, within two months, Swift was attending the Chiefs’ game, sitting with Kelce’s mother, and cheering for him.

How did Travis manage to convince Taylor to come to the game?

On his own podcast, ‘New Heights’, Travis revealed the backstory behind Swift’s appearance at the Sunday night game. Travis had attended one of her concerts with the intention of gifting her a bracelet with his number on it. These bracelets are significant to Swifties, as they exchange them with strangers and form friendships at concerts. Travis had hoped to meet the singer and give her one of these bracelets, but he was disappointed because he didn’t get the chance.

I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Kelce said. “So, I was a little butthurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.” He also admitted that he took it personally.

But Travis didn’t lose hope and he persisted in his efforts. On the Pat McAfee show, he mentioned that he had “thrown the ball” into Taylor’s “court” and asked her to come to Arrowhead. “I’ve seen you rock the stage at Arrowhead. You might have to come see me rock the stage at Arrowhead and see which one’s a little more lit,” he said to Taylor.

Finally, she made it to the game. Not only did she attend the game, but before the match, she visited Travis’ mansion, talked to his family, and went to the stadium with them.

After the game, the couple was seen leaving the stadium together. Later, they attended a post-match celebration, which Travis had set up. Subsequently, TMZ published their first cozy public moment, with Swift seen wrapping her arm around Travis.

While talking to his brother on ‘New Heights’, he expressed his intention to keep their relationship private. It’s interesting to note that only Travis is making statements about their relationship in public. There has been no word from Swift on this matter. Travis recognizes this difference in their personalities, as he is outspoken in the media and public life, whereas Swift is known for how she values privacy.

Now, it looks like things are getting closer. Some are suggesting that they are in a phase of the relationship where both of them are exploring and understanding each other’s personalities. It seems like Swift is having a good time with Travis. However, neither of them has confirmed the relationship to the public.
