Taylor Swift apparently did not make the trek to Minnesota for her third consecutive Kansas City Chiefs game.
Though many hoped to see the singer, 33, cheering on Travis Kelce as his team played the Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis on Sunday, October 8, NFL announcers confirmed her absence shortly after kickoff.
“In case you’re wondering, seven words I thought would never leave my lips in my career, what are they? Taylor Swift is not at the game,” commentator Jim Nantz told viewers. “There are some brokenhearted people I just saw in the stands. She was questionable all week, but it looks like it’s officially inactive for today.”
Swift spent the previous two Sundays in the stands. After weeks of dating rumors, she enthusiastically supported Kelce, 34, at Arrowhead Stadium as the Chiefs beat the Chicago Bears on September 24. She was seen chatting with his mom, Donna Kelce, in the tight end’s private suite and jumping up and down after he scored a touchdown. Later that night, the pair attended an after party with Travis’ teammates at a Kansas City restaurant that he rented out.

Following the match-up against the Jets, Travis liked an Instagram video that showed Taylor reacting to his teammate Isiah Pacheco’s touchdown.
