Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce hosted a concert at Azura Amphitheater in Bonner Springs, Kansas and his stunt grabbed headlines in all the wrong ways. Aptly named Kelce Jam Friday Night, Kelce seems to be the brains behind it all. Not only was the festival named after him, but it also featured artists and food items all handpicked by Kelce.

The stunt in question became the highlight of the show, and fans couldn’t help but draw comparisons to a similar thing another player pulled off not too long ago.

While surrounded by onlookers, Travis Kelce chugged a beer off the Lombardi Trophy before spiking it. However, in a moment of apparent thoughtlessness, he threw the empty beer can on the ground and then proceeded to throw the trophy even harder, causing shock among those witnessing the incident.

Travis attempted a stunt that resembled Rob Gronkowski’s infamous antics, but it didn’t receive much appreciation. Fans quickly dubbed it the “Gronk stunt” for its blatant publicity grab. However, this incident pales in comparison to the well-known story of Gronk damaging the Lombardi trophy. This time, it was not a replica, unlike the controversial Patrick Mahomes incident where Mahomes received backlash for handing a replica trophy to a fan. Reports confirmed that Mahomes’ trophy was a replica, but Rob’s trophy was not.

In fact, the official trophy was permanently damaged with a noticeable dent on it. Comments suggest that Travis was trying too hard to emulate Gronk’s “fame-inducing” antics.
