Just In: Ahead of the Chiefs vs 49ers game, Travis Kelce reveals the one “very sincere vow” he made to his mom, Donna, which he “will do everything within my power” to fulfill. See details
Cleveland was electric on Thursday night, celebrating a thrilling finish in Game 3 of the ALCS, where the Guardians managed to edge out the Yankees with a dramatic win. Among the ecstatic fans was Travis Kelce, a hometown hero who couldn’t contain his excitement.
The Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end, who grew up in Cleveland Heights, followed the action closely and shared his reaction on social media after David Fry’s walk-off homer in the 10th inning clinched the victory for the Guardians.
Kelce had previously been spotted at Yankee Stadium for Game 1 of the series, joined by his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
His appearance, however, drew mixed reactions, with some fans expressing disappointment that he wasn’t wearing any Guardians merchandise. On Thursday night, he addressed the critics, responding directly to those comments.
“I’ve been a cleveland sports fan my entire life,” he said.
“Make it back to countless amount of games over the years both Guards and Cavs just to enjoy these memories with my friends and family, WIN OR LOSE!!… and I don’t wear Cleveland gear one time and all of a sudden I’m not a real fan?!.
“Ask anybody that was in or around that suite on game 1 who I was cheering for, they’ll let you know I was there for the @CleGuardians.”
During his “New Heights” podcast, Kelce spoke about his experience at the game, noting that he had “mixed feelings” about being there. He confessed that he was disappointed when the Guardians fell short in Game 1, losing 5-2 to the Yankees.
