As Travis Kelce ran out of the tunnel and onto the Arrowhead Stadium field, he did his signature bow-and-arrow pose to the amusement of girlfriend Taylor Swift, watching from a luxury suite.
Swift, who began her Sunday in the news for a hateful post from Donald Trump on Truth Social, did not seem affected by it, waving her hands in front of her face at the sight of her man’s entrance.
Swift also took a drink from her steel cup, with Kelce’s No 87 in yellow and red on it, and was cheering loudly for her boyfriend.
Kelce’s signature pose resembles an archer shooting an arrow, which has meaning to both him and his girlfriend.
Swift’s song, ‘The Archer’, was part of her Eras Tour set list until May when it was cut to make room for songs from her new album, ‘The Tortured Poets Department.’
Kelce has been doing the pose longer than he has been dating Swift. There is no doubt he did the pose with her in mind before facing the Cincinnati Bengals.
Swift did the archer pose on stage at Wembley Stadium as part of her Eras Tour back in August as she transitioned to the song ‘So High School.’ It is widely thought Swift wrote the song about Kelce.
Kelce was in the crowd in London that night alongside brother Jason Kelce. Travis himself got on stage at the Eras Tour the next night as one of Swift’s backup dancers.
On an episode of ‘New Heights’ that was released last October, weeks into Swift and Kelce’s public romance, Travis detailed by he adopted the archer pose as part of his entrance.
‘I do the archer pose when I enter the stadium because I wanted to do something when I ran out of the tunnel,’ Kelce said. ‘You know, what’s really been motivating for me is to dream big. Always shoot for the stars. So I’m always out there shooting for the stars.’
‘One of my favorite quotes from my guy, Deion Sanders, Prime Time, says, “If your dreams aren’t bigger than you, then there’s a problem with your dreams.” So don’t forget to shoot for the stars, ladies and gentlemen.’
Swift is attending her 15th Chiefs game on Sunday, with Kansas City holding an 11-3 record in the previous games she has witnessed live.
