Travis Kelce says it was all spontaneous—no script, no rehearsal
According to Travis Kelce, there was no formal rehearsal, no setlist, no script. Just a few minutes of backstage prep. Taylor Swift grabbed an acoustic guitar and performed “Shake It Off,” sending the crowd into a frenzy. “She was in the back writing out musical notes,” Kelce recalled. “Then she went out there without practicing and nailed it. She crushed it. It was incredible.”
But the performance wasn’t the only thing that got out of hand. Travis Kelce admitted that the opening night got a little wild. Between Aperol Spritzes and jokes with Greg Olsen, the vibe turned more party than seminar. “I had like 30,” Travis laughed. The next morning, he had to lead a 30-minute seminar on route running. “I gotta stop getting hammered before these things, man,” Kelce joked.
