Travis Kelce, the standout tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, was recently spotted embracing the festivities of the 150th Kentucky Derby during his offseason.
The 34-year-old made a stylish statement in a crisp white suit paired with a dark fedora as he immersed himself in the event’s ambiance. Notably absent was his renowned girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
According to reports, Kelce was seen reveling alongside former NBA player Chandler Parsons at the Ice House on Friday evening.
The duo attended the Revel at the Races concert, headlined by the electronic music duo known as the Chainsmokers, as part of the weekend’s celebrations organized by Sports Illustrated.
Following the electrifying performance by the Chainsmokers, Kelce ensured to catch up with Alex Pall, one-half of the duo, as they shared a moment captured and shared on Pall’s Instagram story.
Travis Kelce’s camaraderie with the Chainsmokers is well-documented. During the Kansas City Chiefs’ triumphant Super Bowl LVIII victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas, Kelce and his team were seen reveling in the celebration alongside Alex Pall of the Chainsmokers and his partner, Taylor Swift.
During their time in Sin City, Travis Kelce delighted the crowd by passionately singing along to Taylor Swift’s chart-topper “You Belong With Me,” playfully tweaking the lyrics to “Are you in love with me?”
Swift, touched by the gesture, reportedly confided to a reporter that it was “the most romantic thing that’s ever happened to me,” as detailed.
Following his Kentucky Derby escapades, the NFL sensation is set to make his way to Miami for the highly-anticipated Miami Grand Prix, where he is anticipated to reunite with Swift once more.
There, he will join other notable celebrity owners of the Alpine F1 Team, including quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his spouse Brittany, professional golfer Rory McIlroy, and Hollywood luminary Ryan Reynolds.
With high-profile celebrities such as Kelce and Mahomes in attendance to show their support, Alpine drivers Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon will undoubtedly feel the pressure to deliver following the significant investments from these NFL stars.
The duo has experienced a sluggish start to the 2023-24 season, with Gasly’s best finish placing him 13th and Ocon achieving only an 11th place, highlighting the need for improvement as they strive to elevate their performance on the track.
Moreover, team Alpine hasn’t managed to bag any points in the Constructors’ Championship so far, sharing bottom places with Williams and Kick Sauber.
In stark contrast, supremacy continues to be conferred upon Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez of Team Red Bull. After just five races, they’ve accumulated an impressive tally of 209 points.
Verstappen’s flawless start to the season hit a snag at the Australian Grand Prix, where he failed to finish. Instead, Ferrari’s dynamic duo Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc clinched first and second place, with McLaren’s Lando Norris taking a respectable third.
For Kelce, the Miami event marks another highlight in an already thrilling off-season. It could also be the last time he joins Swift – should she attend – at a public event for a while. The pop superstar is set to kick off the European leg of her “Eras Tour” on May 9 in France.
