“The first game she came to against the Bears I was like, ‘Hey yeah so you wanna come okay I could probably set you up with everything.’ And she just walked right through the front door she just like there’s no going down, no talking to security making sure that she gets to her seat,” Kelce said on the Bussin’ with the Boys podcast (1:17:29–1:08:04 mark).
“I was just like, ‘She got — points for that’. I was like damn, ‘She’s just f*****g, she’s in the madness man. She wants to be a part of it, she wants to support me and do things like that’. I was like man she really won me over with that one.”
Swift would go on to attend the majority of Kansas City Chiefs games, including all three playoff matchups and the Super Bowl.

According to People, the Super Bowl win was eye-opening. He said that her understanding of the moment and the gravity for Kelce and the Chiefs was huge.
