Mere hours after being spotted out to dinner in New York City, Taylor Swift and her family hopped on a plane for Kansas City, where the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs were facing off against the Houston Texans in the January 18 AFC Divisional Playoff game.
Taylor’s family — including mom Andrea, father Scott and younger brother Austin — joined her at the game, where they were seen sporting the Chiefs’ signature red in support of her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
A clip making the rounds on social media shows the family and Travis zipping through the stadium in a golf cart. Taylor was later seen sitting in a suite alongside her parents, Travis’ dad, Ed, and WNBA star Caitlin Clark.
According to Indy Star sports reporter Chloe Peterson, Taylor “extended an invitation to the Chiefs game” when Caitlin, a point guard for the Indiana Fever, attended the Eras Tour in Indianapolis.
Taylor’s appearance at the game came the same day the daughter of Chiefs owner Clark Hunt pulled back the curtain on what it’s been like to have the pop star in the stands.
“It’s been such a special time to have her be a part of Chiefs Kingdom,” Gracie Hunt, a former Miss Kansas, shared with People. “She is just as beautiful and wonderful as you’d ever imagine her to be, so smart and intelligent.”
Despite being one of the biggest celebrities in the world, Taylor is “down to earth” and “kind to everyone,” Gracie Hunt said. “No matter who you are or what circle you fall in … that just is who Taylor is.”

Taylor, who has been dating Travis since the summer of 2023, has become a staple at many of the reigning Super Bowl champ’s home games since that September. And according to Gracie Hunt, her attendance has had a positive impact on the team. Gracie Hunt credits Taylor with growing the Chiefs’ fan base “between 30 and 40 percent.”
It’s been a busy week for the Swift family. On January 17, the pop star and her folks dined out at Nobu in downtown Manhattan, one day after Taylor was named in Justin Baldoni’s $400 million lawsuit against her best friends, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
While Taylor herself is not being sued, Justin implies — among many accusations — that the A-list couple enlisted Taylor and her star power to help pressure him into making changes to It Ends With Us, a film he directed and starred in with Blake.
Blake, who previously accused Justin of sexual harassment and engineering a smear campaign, has denied his allegations.
