Travis Kelce is once again proving to be his girlfriend Taylor Swift’s biggest cheerleader.

Over the weekend, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, showed up to her Eras Tour stop in Indianapolis (and showed off his dance moves). And, on the recent episode of his New Heights podcast, he revealed the sentimental reason he wanted to attend the show despite being in the middle of his own busy football season.

“I wanted to see Tay one more time before this thing got closed up,” he shared on the Wednesday, November 6 podcast with brother Jason Kelce.

“I’ll tell you what, man, the American crowds, they did not disappoint,” Travis continued. “I heard that it was a lot more rowdy this time around, knowing she was coming back to stop through America one last time before the tour was over with. I’ll tell you what, man, that thing was rocking.”

Kelce, who’s become somewhat of a regular fixture at Swift’s shows since their relationship went public in October 2023, attended the Saturday, November 2, show—the second of Swift’s three-night run at Indianapolis’ Lucas Oil Stadium.

After wrapping her weekend in Indy, Swift celebrated her U.S. tour finale by sharing a carousel of photos on Instagram with a heartfelt note.

“Couldn’t have asked for a more magical way to end our US shows on The Eras Tour,” she wrote on Tuesday, November 5. “Just had the time of my life with 207,000 beautiful people in Indianapolis who showered us with so much love and excitement and joy… I know I’ll be looking back on this weekend and smiling because it was just like a dreamscape, all of it.”

Swift ended her caption with a thank-you to fans and a reminder for U.S. citizens to vote, adding, “There are only 9 shows left on The Eras Tour. I can’t believe we’re in single digits. Next up: getting to finally see my beloved Canadian fans again!! See you for 6 shows in Toronto!”
