Travis Kelce just hit the big 3-5, and boy, did he throw a party to match! On October 5, the Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end celebrated in true Kelce fashion—by throwing a Kelce Car Jam. Sounds like something that could either be an epic birthday bash or a chaotic demolition derby. Spoiler alert: it was more party, less crashing.
Surrounded by his friends, family, and undoubtedly some people just trying to score free snacks, the Kansas City streets were alive with the sound of… “Happy Birthday”! Yes, a crowd of adoring fans belted out their best (or worst) rendition of the birthday anthem. In return, they handed Travis cards, presumably filled with heartfelt messages, lottery scratch-offs, or maybe just requests for autographs. Who knows?
In the VIP section of this shindig? His parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, looking proud enough to burst, his brother Jason, already plotting next year’s sibling prank, and sister-in-law Kylie Kelce, no doubt keeping the guys in line. Oh, and did we mention Chiefs superstar QB Patrick Mahomes and his pregnant wife Brittany? Yes, even Mahomes made time to roll up and give Travis a high five—or maybe it was a secret football handshake. We’ll never know.
But what does one gift a man who seemingly has it all? Travis already revealed his birthday wishlist and it’s surprisingly relatable… if you happen to be an NFL player. “Another Super Bowl, if you’ve got one!” he told People magazine. You know, no big deal, just another Super Bowl ring to add to his collection. It’s like asking for socks but on a way cooler, multi-million-dollar level.
However, our birthday boy wasn’t done. He upped the stakes, suggesting a Monday night win would be the ultimate gift. “How about we go get a win on Monday night? You guys up for that?” he teased, setting his sights on the New Orleans Saints like they’re the final cupcake in the birthday box. And hey, who can blame him for wanting to crush some dreams on the field to top off his big day?
And if you’re wondering where Travis’s rumored love interest, Taylor Swift, was during all of this—you know, just the global pop sensation—well, she was busy prepping for her next round of Eras Tour shows. Apparently, even birthdays must take a backseat to Swiftie world domination.
