KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Pop superstar Taylor Swift returned to Arrowhead Stadium Monday night to watch the Kansas City Chiefs and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after wrapping up the U.S. leg of her record-breaking Eras Tour.

It was a good evening for both of them.

Swift was able to celebrate Kelce’s big night, which included 14 catches for 100 yards in a driving rain, along with a win for the Chiefs. They trailed by a touchdown in the fourth quarter, scored twice to take the lead and then went to overtime, where they won the coin toss and drove for a touchdown that gave them a 30-24 victory.

Kelce, who had fumbled earlier in the game, had two of his catches on the decisive drive in overtime. His reception totals were a career-best for a regular-season game, matching a 14-catch performance in a 2023 playoff win over Jacksonville, while his 16 targets were just one shy of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes of his career high.

“He does a great job of finding space,” Mahomes said, “and I think having DeAndre (Hopkins) there takes the pressure off where all the attention isn’t on him all the time. And every time he gets going, man, he’s hard to stop.

Swift finally gets a chance to stop herself after playing the last of three shows at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis on Sunday to conclude the US leg of her tour. The remainder of her tour heads to Canada with the first of six shows at Toronto’s Rogers Center on November 14 and three shows in December at BC Place in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Started quickly her high-profile romance with Kelce last season, when he invited the “Anti-Hero” singer to watch him a September matchup with the Bears. Since then, the two have spent a lot of time together, often with cameras following their every move.

Swift’s arrival in a black outfit and Chiefs jacket on Monday evening took place on the eve of the presidential election, in which the fourteen-time Grammy winner threw her support behind Vice President Kamala Harris. That caused an uproar when Harris’ rival, Donald Trump, began naming Swift’s friend and Mahomes’ wife, Brittany, as a supporter of his campaign.

Patrick Mahomes has refused to endorse anyone in the electioninstead, people are urged to register to vote.
