Taylor Swift spotted at first Chiefs game of season to support Travis Kelce
Oh here we go again, Taylor Swift is back at Arrowhead Stadium to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce as the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Baltimore Ravens.
The "Tortured Poets" singer appeared at the first game of the regular season just before 6 p.m. Thursday evening, a little over an hour before kickoff. Twitter videos showed the star walking through the back halls of the stadium before heading up the elevator to her suite. She was wearing a blue jean corset and shorts with shiny maroon thigh-high boots. Her blue top, designed by Versace, is worth $1,325.
In a video posted by Rob Collins, the sports director for Kansas City FOX4, Swift walked by and said, "Hello, how are you guys?"
The singer-songwriter is on a two-month break from her massive Eras Tour, which has five cities left. The superstar may be able to attend the first five games of the regular season before returning to the stage in Miami, New Orleans and Indianapolis for nine nights in late October and early November. She may be able to attend the Monday night matchup between the Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Nov. 4 and support the red-and-gold for five more games. Her final show in Toronto, Canada, on Dec. 8 falls on the same day as the Los Angeles Chargers game, but she may be able to make the final four games of the regular season.
Is Swift a Chiefs good luck charm?
In October, amid controversy after Swift was shown for a little over 20 seconds during an NFL broadcast, head coach Andy Reid admitted during a news conference that the singer may be a good luck charm.

Kelce confirmed Swift was fascinated with learning the rules of football after quarterback Patrick Mahomes told NBC's Chris Simms that the singer "asks a lot of great questions" and "started drawing up plays."
“I think what makes her so good in her profession is that she’s so detailed in every aspect of it, from the words to the music to even the releases and the music videos and everything," Kelce said during an interview with "The Rich Eisen Show." "She’s so detailed and a part of it that I think she was just curious about the profession. I know none of the plays have gotten to Coach (Andy) Reid yet, but if they ever do, I’ll make sure everyone knows it was her creation."
