One of the more recent high-profile date nights between Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce and multi-Grammy Award-winning recording artist Taylor Swift happened in October during an MLB playoff game.
The couple were in New York City to spend some quality time together amid their extremely busy schedules, and they thought it would be a good idea to have a date at the ballpark.
It was Game 1 of the American League Championship Series as the New York Yankees hosted the Cleveland Guardians — Kelce’s hometown team — at Yankee Stadium. Kelce and Swift were spotted enjoying the game from a VIP box, which apparently, included sportscaster Adam Lefkoe and his wife, Inem Akpan.
In a recent interview on “The Steam Room” podcast with Charles Barkley and Ernie Johnson, Lefkoe spilled the beans on his experience with arguably the most popular couple on the planet right now.

According to Lefkoe, it was Kelce who invited him to the game. The renowned sports personality got the chance to meet Swift, too, and Lefkoe had nothing but good things to say about the “Fortnight” singer, who he described as “so cool and nice.”
Lefkoe also revealed Swift’s admirable behavior after the game in terms of how she treated the security personnel at Yankee Stadium.
“(The) game is over, she took pictures with everybody there,” Lefkoe said. “We had to wait an hour because when you’re that famous, you can’t leave when everyone else leaves.
“We’re walking down the hallway, and she’s reaching into her purse, and she’s giving money to the security guards that had to stay late an hour. And you just begin to realize, this is just a good person in which the world is obsessed with them.”
This isn’t the first time Swift has been known to tip stadium workers. In January last year, a Highmark Stadium employee shared how Swift tipped her $100 and took a photo with her when the Buffalo Bills hosted the Chiefs.
Swift’s behavior towards workers has clearly an impression on Lefkoe as he witnessed firsthand how generous and genuine the 35-year-old singer/songwriter truly is.
