Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end and all-around gridiron gladiator, recently spilled the tea (or should we say Gatorade?) on how much moolah it took for Taylor Swift to snag a Super Bowl suite. And letβs just say, itβs not the kind of pocket change you find under your couch cushions.
Rewind to Februaryβs Super Bowl extravaganza where the Chiefs clashed with the San Francisco 49ers. It was a showdown hotter than a jalapeΓ±o at a Texas barbecue. If you think nosebleed seats are pricey, wait till you hear about the high-roller suites. Spoiler alert: they cost more than a small island or a lifetime supply of avocado toast.
Flash forward to a candid moment in Netflixβs new show, **Receivers**, which follows a handful of NFL stars through the 2023-2024 season. Travis Kelce, our knight in shining shoulder pads, had a little chat with George Kittle, his fellow tight end and 49ersβ all-star.
βHey George, you guys thinking of getting a suite?β Travis asked, probably while munching on some victory wings.
George, channeling every penny-pinching person ever, replied, βNo, I canβt.β
Travis, never one to mince words, cut him off faster than a running back dodging tackles. βBecause theyβre f***ing $3 million dollars?β he said, probably with an eyebrow raised so high it reached the nosebleed seats.
Yes, you read that right. Three million smackeroos. Thatβs enough to buy a fleet of luxury cars, a mansion, or approximately one and a half Super Bowl suites. So next time youβre grumbling about ticket prices, just remember: it could always be worse. You could be dropping three mil just to watch the game in style.
