Taylor Swift spends Black Friday watching Chiefs’ Travis Kelce beat the Raiders

Pop superstar Taylor Swift spent Black Friday amid a sea of ​​red, watching her boyfriend Travis Kelce and the rest of the Kansas City Chiefs defeat the Las Vegas Raiders 19-17 in a chilly matinée at Arrowhead Stadium.

Swift had Thanksgiving weekend off before the Eras Tour ends with three shows in Vancouver starting December 6th.

Swift walked through the tunnel into Arrowhead Stadium in a black outfit and red jacket as camera flashes created a strobe effect. Her arrival at Chiefs games over the last year — since she began dating Kelce, who contacted her with an invitation to a game — has become a red carpet event for local and national media.

Patrick Mahomes became the Chiefs’ career leader in passing touchdowns when he threw a pass to Justin Watson in the end zone late in the first half of Friday’s game. It was Mahomes’ 238th touchdown pass, passing Hall of Famer Len Dawson and tying the franchise record.

The touchdown pass that gave the Chiefs a 10-3 lead came after a daring third-down conversion that began with a pass to longtime tight end Kelce. He threw the ball when tackled just before the first down marker to running back Samaje Perine, who took the field and managed to run far enough for the new down sets.

Kelce caught another pass two plays later, but was tackled at the Las Vegas 8. He’s still looking for his 77th career touchdown reception, which would pass Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez and tie the franchise record in that category.

On Saturday, Hallmark will air “Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story,” about a new Chiefs employee who meets a woman whose family has been involved with the team for decades. The story was written by Sherman Wolfe, a 49ers fan who was asked to write it after the Chiefs defeated San Francisco in the Super Bowl.

“Holiday Touchdown” has several cameos with Chiefs players, as well as a small role for Kelce’s mother, Donna. The team celebrated the upcoming release Friday by handing out small pennants and pins to fans at the game.
