Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce may have just played his final game at Arrowhead Stadium, and his fiancée made sure it was a memorable experience for some who had to work at the game.
The Chiefs hosted the Denver Broncos on Christmas Day, losing with third-stringer Chris Oladokun throwing to Kelce. The game came with some high anticipation, as it would be the final home game for Kelce if he chooses to retire — and potentially the last time Swift takes in a game in the Kelce family suite.
Swift may have added some fuel to the retirement speculation with her actions at the game, including one big act of holiday generosity.
Taylor Swift Left Christmas Present for Arrowhead Employees
Swift was in a giving mood when she took in Kelce’s game, with an Arrowhead employee later taking to social media to share the pop superstar’s generous gift. Robyn Gentry attracted some viral attention when she detailed the big tip that Swift left after personally greeting some employees.
Gentry wrote in a Facebook post that Swift was with Kelce and some members of his family, taking time to show her appreciation to the stadium employees.
“I was working at Arrowhead for the chiefs game Christmas day. I was doing my end of season to do list, talking with my coworkers when security goes to walk through. First it was momma kelce, then it was Travis, and then Taylor,” Gentry wrote. “She was running around telling everyone merry Christmas and came towards me, saying thank you so much for working on Christmas, please take this, Merry Christmas.
“My mind just froze. Of course I said Merry Christmas and thank you so much. Travis and her were smiling so big and just kept saying merry Christmas, thank you for working Christmas but then they were gone and I stopped to look at what was in my hand…. $600.”
While Kelce has yet to announce whether he will retire at the conclusion of this season, Swift’s generous act — and show of gratitude for the stadium employees after three years of attending games — could add more fuel to rumors that Kelce is hanging up his cleats at the conclusion of the season.
But the gift could also just be part of Swift’s nature, regardless of Kelce’s retirement decision. She also gave employees on her record-smashing Eras Tour a total of $197 million in bonuses.
Travis Kelce Remains Quiet on Retirement Decision
Kelce was visibly emotional before Thursday’s game, later telling reporters that he was trying to soak it all in.
“A whole lot of emotions,” Kelce said, via Fox Sports. “You’ve got everybody in the world watching you. You get to go out there with the young guys on primetime television. Young guys getting an opportunity to taste what this NFL life is like.”
But when asked about retirement, Kelce demurred and said he had yet to make a final decision.
“I’ll let that be a decision I’ll make with my family, friends, the Chiefs organization when the time comes,” Kelce said.
