Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce opted for an interesting way to silence the rival fans at Gillette Stadium on Sunday. As the Chiefs warmed up ahead of their 27-17 win over the New England Patriots over the weekend, Kelce, 34, found himself the victim of heckling from a section of home fans.
The supporters tried to rile up the two-time Super Bowl winner with shouts of, ‘Mahomes is a fraud,’ referring the Chiefs’ quarterback, and, ‘Yo Kelce, you gotta block.’ And the tight end, who was cheered on by girlfriend Taylor Swift once again, found a very cheeky way to respond to the Patriots fans. Without acknowledging them in anyway, Kelce turned his back to the stands and proceeded to pull down and moon the booing fans.

The supporters in fairness took it well, laughing at Kelce, who merely pulled up his pants and carried on strolling down the sideline. It is unclear what his girlfriend Taylor – or her dad, Scott – thought of his antics as she watched him from a luxury suite along with her father, Brittany Mahomes and friend Alana Haim.
However, given her newfound passion for football and her own antics in the stands, the Grammy Award winner probably would have been a fan. The Anti-Hero hitmaker was caught screaming, ‘f***’, on the broadcast as Kelce went down in the endzone.
Taylor was booed herself as she received a frosty reception from Gillette Stadium when she was shown on the big screen but she shook off the haters and stuck out her tongue in response.
After losses to the Green Bay Packers and the Buffalo Bills the two previous weeks, Travis welcomed Sunday’s win with a sigh of relief as he spoke to brother Jason, who wasn’t as lucky as the Philadelphia Eagles slid to their third straight loss on Monday night.
‘F***ing exhilarating,’ Travis said on their New Heights podcast. ‘I don’t mean to rub it in, I love you. I can’t wait for you guys to win this week, so you can get off the train, man. The L train sucks. ‘But it was not an easy one, we managed to put up some points. We played a well-rounded team game, all three phases getting after it. Unfortunately, we need to cut back on the turnovers as an offense.’
