Travis Kelce Responds to Being Booed at NBA Game With Patrick Mahomes

Travis Kelce dismissed the recent booing he received while watching an NBA finals game with Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany. The Kansas City Chiefs athlete has faced plenty of criticism. When he plays on the field, the 34-year-old is the subject of opposing fan behavior.

 

 

However, he is being booed as a spectator rather than a player, which is unusual. However, on May 26, spectators at the Minnesota Timberwolves-Dallas Mavericks game expressed a tremendous hatred for Kelce. “I got booed twice,” the professional athlete confessed on the May 29 podcast episode of New Heights.

“It’s whatever. I get it.” Kelce may not have worried about the clear dislike for him, but when his teammate appeared on the jumbotron, the stadium’s reaction was dramatically different. When Mahomes’ face appeared on the big screen, people cheered for the Texas native. “I got caught of guard,” Kelce told his brother, Jason, during the podcast recording.

 

 

The celebrity player – who’s currently dating Grammy winner Taylor Swift – was taking a selfie when Mahomes poked him to bring his attention to the jumbotron. “And then I heard all the boos, and I was like, ‘Oh s***, I’m being booed! Okay, thanks! Nice to see you, Dallas. I appreciate the kind welcome.’ And then they showed Pat, and everybody went, ‘Yeah!’ Hometown kid, man. “Best football player in the world,” Kelce said.

 

 

Kelce believed that because he is from Cleveland, Ohio, rather than Texas, he was subjected to harsh criticism. “I’m not from Dallas; I’m more of an innocent observer. Maybe they don’t like the Chiefs, I’m not sure,” he said the former Philadelphia Eagles player. “Dallas is about as legit of a sports town as it gets.”
