Travis Kelce’s game-worn jersey has been sold for $37000 at an auction amid Taylor Swift fever on and off the field, TMZ reports.
According to the report by TMZ, Travis Kelce’s game-worn jersey, worn by him in the Chiefs 2019 victory against the Los Angeles Chargers in Mexico City, and a game in which he scored a TD just went for an eye-watering $37,000 on Goldin Auctions. The sale marks an all-time record for a Travis game-used item for the auction house.
Auction owner, Ken Goldin, says “This is an all-time record for a Travis Kelce game-used item. He has always been popular but the success of the Chiefs, as well as the publicity he’s gotten around his relationship with Taylor Swift, has added to his popularity and awareness among collectors,” according to TMZ.
Ken’s clearly stating the obvious, though, as the frenzy surrounding his romance with Taylor has been like nothing we’ve seen before. Not all NFL fans have been happy with Swift’s presence at the games, stating she’s been a distraction, especially during broadcasts.
However, as Taylor explained in her TIME Magazine profile after being named Person of the Year, she’s merely there to “support Travis” and doesn’t care about the attention from fans.
