Unbelievable : Jason Kelce was reamed by his brother Travis on their weekly “New Heights” podcast after a photo went viral of the elder Kelce supposedly sleeping at Taylor Swift’s “Eras Tour” concert in Miami…
The former Philadelphia Eagles center agreed with his Kansas City Chiefs tight end brother that it was the “greatest show,” marveling at how loud the fans were at the Hard Rock Stadium and how Swift performed through inclement weather. “It was like on another level. I text[ed] you halfway through it like, ‘Dude. This rain? Tay is killing it.’”
When [the] ‘Reputation’ [set] came on and she came out in the new outfit and the rain was coming down… the place could have f—ing erupted. I mean it did,” Jason recalled. “The amount of energy was insane. It was so exciting. But back to this photo, I’m gonna give a little, I guess, background.”
Jason explained that prior to the photo being taken, he was actually dancing with his middle daughter, Elliotte (Ellie) and very cognizant of his surroundings. “We were dancing and I was sitting down so I’m on the same level with her,” Jason explained.
Jason and his family – wife Kylie and two of his daughters, as well as his mother Donna and a group of friends – were all seated out in the open, not in an enclosed space like they are used to at most football games.
And then I’m just like sitting here, and I’m just like feeling it,” Jason described of the moments before the photo was captured. “I’m tapping my thigh, and I’m just like, in the moment, listening to the song. And then all of a sudden, I go on [X] and I see this f—ing picture. I’m like, dude what the f—? Like I’m not even sleeping, and I can prove it to you. There’s evidence in this photo that I’m not sleeping.”
The photo was posted by former Philadelphia Eagles nose tackle Beau Allen, who, along with his own family, had accompanied the Kelces to the concert.
“You were just feeling the groove, huh?” Travis clarified with his brother.
However, Jason wanted to defend himself further. “Zoom in on my right hand in post,” he asked their podcast intern. “Make sure Travis sees this. My hand is hovering. You can’t sleep with your hand hovering above your knee. It’s impossible!”
