NFL star Travis Kelce loves shouting his catch phrase after a big win: “ You got a fight for your right to party!” But by the time the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl LV III v ic tor y pa r ade wou nd dow n a rou nd lunchtime on Feb. 14, the tight end was fighting to stand up. That morning, Travis chugged beer and gulped from a funnel in the street, used the Lombardi Trophy as a liquid luge and, according to one social media commenter, had also “been drinking Don Julio [tequila] since 10 a.m.” When Trav took the stage at the end of the parade route and launched into a sloppy, slurred version of Garth Brooks’ country classic “Friends in Low Places,” teammates had to hold him up until quarterback Patrick Mahomes finally pulled the microphone away. “I knew Travis was gonna be messy, but Kelce is LIT lit,” an observer wrote on X. Another branded him a “sloppy drunk.” Yet another summed up the sentiments of many, writing, “Love Travis!!! BUT this is embarrassing!!!!!”
Fans aren’t the only ones who took notice. While Travis’ girlfriend, Taylor Swift , enjoyed hours of drinking alongside him as they partied at multiple nightclubs after the big game in Las Vegas on Feb. 11, friends believe that his parade antics ventured into cringe territory. “He should have reined it in a little bit,” explains a source, who claims Trav’s boozed-up behavior isn’t all the pop star is looking to change. “Pals are saying now that Taylor and Trav is are more than six months into their relationship, she feels comfortable setting certain rules for him to follow. Fortunately, Travis is on board — with most of them, anyway.”
