The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, reflected on attending Game 1 of the American League Championship Series with his girlfriend, 34, as a Guardians fan in Wednesday’s episode of his “New Heights” podcast.
“It was mixed feelings because I was there trying to have some fun with Tay and everybody. All our friends … came. We had an unbelievable crew with us and hanging with us. It was fun,” he told his brother and co-host, Jason Kelce.
But Travis, an Ohio native, admitted watching the Guardians lose to the Yankees 2-5 was tough.
“Even though the Guards couldn’t pull it off, it was still an exciting game,” he said. “It was cool to see Yankee Stadium because I always wanted to see that thing in person, in a playoff game, in a hostile environment, and it didn’t disappoint, man.”
He added, “The Yankees, the fans, the players, everybody involved, man, it was awesome.”
The football player reiterated that he was in “hostile territory” rooting for the away team.
“It’s the Bronx Bombers, and I’m at Yankee Stadium and the playoffs, and I’m over here cheering for the Guards ’cause I’m a Cleveland kid and I want to see Cleveland win a f–king World Series,” he said.
Travis and Swift showed up to Yankee Stadium looking casual and low-key.
The couple engaged in PDA while seated in a VIP box — and at one point, Swift was spotted sweetly feeding her beau some popcorn.
The “Bejeweled” singer rocked a brown sweater and black mini skirt layered under an oversized blazer with a black baseball cap. The athlete also tried to keep a low profile in a Midnight Rodeo hat and wore a bomber jacket over a white T-shirt.
The lovebirds were seen looking smitten all over New York City this weekend.
On Saturday night, the Grammy-winning artist and Travis had a romantic dinner at Major Food Group’s Italian joint Torrisi.
The duo entered the restaurant holding hands and were seen leaving looking as if they had just been making out.
The previous night, Travis and Swift dined at the Corner Store in Soho with her close friends Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
