Taylor Swift was at the Kansas City Chiefs ring ceremony without actually being there.
Following her Eras Tour concert on Thursday, the 34-year-old decided she would stay up incredibly late and tune into a live stream of the Kansas City Chiefs ring ceremony so she could watch her boyfriend Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes, and their teammates receive their Super Bowl LVIII rings.
The celebration took place at Kansas City’s Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, as Swift was six time zones away. At one point, Swift joined Chariah Gordon’s Instagram Live, the girlfriend of Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman, and showed him a comment she made about him.

“JOINING THE PARTY FROM LIVERPOOL LETS GOOOOOOOO,” Swift wrote while currently on the European leg of The Eras Tour.
Swift showed her excitement throughout with comments such as “YESSSSSSS,” “CONGRATULATIONS,” and “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.”
The ceremony went well, but Taylor wasn’t able to finish it out. As she later commented, “I have to go to sleep; it’s so late here. Love you guys.”
As we all know, the ring ceremony was to celebrate the Chiefs Super Bowl LVIII victory against the San Francisco 49ers, which took place in Las Vegas. It was the franchise’s second Super Bowl win over the 49ers.
Brittany Mahomes Praises Taylor Swift For Creating New Football Fans
Back in September, Taylor Swift shocked everybody by showing up at Arrowhead Stadium to watch Travis Kelce and the Chiefs as their relationship was just beginning.
Swift’s impact was immediate as more gear and more people would tune into games because of her.
Brittany Mahomes, who is married to Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, witnessed firsthand Swift’s impact and how she likely introduced a new generation of football fans.
“I love that it’s getting young girls into football, so that they can watch it with their dads,” Brittany told E! News at the Chiefs’ 2024 Super Bowl ring ceremony.
“I feel like most dads out there love it when their daughters are like, ‘I wanna watch football!’”
She added, “It got a bunch of beautiful little girls out there, and a lot of new fans that we love and adore.”
