Super Bowl Sunday is typically about thrilling plays and championship moments, but this year, much of the attention is on one particular fan in the stands—Taylor Swift.
In a recent interview with People, Jason Kelce confirmed that Taylor will be at the Super Bowl in New Orleans to support her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and the Kansas City Chiefs as they take on the Philadelphia Eagles. When asked about the event being a family gathering, Jason responded, “Yeah, I think everybody’s coming in,” mentioning that their whole family, along with Taylor and Travis’ friends, would be there.
Fan Reactions: Excited or Over It?
The news of Taylor’s attendance has sparked mixed reactions. While some fans are thrilled, others are frustrated, with many taking to social media to express their discontent.
One Reddit user admitted they were “tempted to not watch it,” criticizing the Chiefs’ dominance and the frequent camera cuts to Taylor in her luxury box. Another complained, “Not watching. They will be cutting to Taylor Swift’s reaction every 39 seconds…” Others claimed that Taylor’s presence was overshadowing the game itself.
Many fans voiced their frustration over the Super Bowl’s commercialized nature, with one saying it was “disappointing” to see football turn into a spectacle rather than just a sport. Some even accused the NFL of favoring the Chiefs, with one fan stating, “Yeah, it’s a no for me.”
Several users argued that Chiefs games have become predictable, either dominated by them or ending in a dramatic comeback helped by questionable calls. One joked that they had expected the Chiefs to win since last year and regretted not placing a bet on it.
For some, skipping the game is an easy choice. One fan said they’d rather “watch the Puppy Bowl,” while another called it an “easy skip” because they dislike both teams.

Beyond the Game: The Travis & Taylor Buzz
Taylor’s relationship with Travis continues to be a major talking point. Many fans speculate whether he plans to propose, though he has remained tight-lipped on the subject. Since making her first appearance at a Chiefs game in September 2023, Taylor has been a frequent presence in the VIP suites, supporting Travis throughout the season.
Most recently, she was in attendance for the AFC Championship game against the Buffalo Bills on January 26, where the Chiefs secured a thrilling 32-29 victory. After the win, she joined Travis on the field for a celebratory moment filled with hugs, kisses, and exchanged “I love yous.”
Chiefs’ Historic Pursuit
With another Super Bowl appearance, the Chiefs have a chance to make history by becoming the first team to win three consecutive championships. Their previous victories in 2023 and 2024 have already solidified their dynasty status.
Last year’s Super Bowl saw one of the most talked-about moments when Taylor and Travis celebrated the Chiefs’ win with a kiss, a scene captured by flashing cameras. Now, all eyes are on February 9, when Travis will take the field just a week after Taylor’s solo appearance at the Grammys, where she notably wore a bold red dress—possibly a nod to the Chiefs.
Their love story began in the summer of 2023 when Travis attended Taylor’s Eras Tour concert at Arrowhead Stadium, hoping to give her a friendship bracelet with his number. Though that plan didn’t work out, the two eventually connected, and their romance has since become one of the most followed stories in sports and entertainment.
Whether fans are tuning in for football, Taylor Swift, or both, one thing is certain—Super Bowl 2025 will be a spectacle like no other.
