Every Nod To Taylor Swift In The Chiefs’ Hilarious Hallmark Parody

The spoof trailer for “Falling for Football” leans in on poking some good-natured fun at the typical Hallmark rom-com tropes as well as sneaking in some references to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. In the clip, Janel Parrish of “Pretty Little Liars” fame plays Amber, a woman who once loved football. However, after a heartbreak, she’s “lost the postseason spirit” thanks to her fiance getting playoff tickets. “How could you choose the Dawg Pound over me?” she asks. The Dawg Pound is a reference to a fan section for the Cleveland Browns. Who grew up in a suburb of Cleveland and once wanted to play for the Browns? Kelce.

As the trailer continues, Amber meets Ben, played by Hallmark fan favorite Tyler Hynes, who’s full of the postseason spirit but tries to hide it from her to keep their relationship alive. Amber discovers that Ben really does love football when she sees him arranging friendship bracelets in a Chiefs-themed store — friendship bracelets are a clear nod to Swift. They became the thing to wear and exchange if you were going to watch the Eras Tour. In fact, Kelce has talked about how he made one with his number on it to try and give Swift when he went to her concert in July.
