Kylie Kelce revealed the one thing Jason Kelce missed out on during his wild day in Buffalo, where he went shirtless in a suite at the Bills-Chiefs divisional-round game Sunday.
During a Friday appearance on “Good Morning America,” Kylie explained that the veteran Eagles center “desperately wanted to go through a table” — which is a Bills Mafia tailgate tradition — but never ended up getting his chance at Highmark Stadium, where the Chiefs beat the Bills 27-24.
“He wanted to get the full Bills experience,” said Kylie, who confirmed that she and Jason will be in attendance for the Chiefs-Ravens AFC Championship game on Sunday. “I’m sure you know as a Bills fan, they are notorious, or famous for their tailgating skills, I will say.
“He desperately wanted to go through a table. It was on his checklist for the day. Top priority of the day: go through table. He did not get a chance to do that.”
Kylie explained that she and Kelce arrived to the suite — where they were meeting his brother Travis’ girlfriend, Taylor Swift — separately, and he told her about his plan to go shirtless.
“And so when he came into the suite…he said to me, ‘I’m gonna take my shirt off and I’m gonna jump out,” Kylie said. “And I was like, ‘I don’t think that’s the best idea.’ But I think that it was that continued energy from when he was hyping himself up to break a table.
“So, the first time he jumped out of the suite, I was like, you know what? Go ahead. That’s my husband. Then the second and third time he did it I was like, ‘I’m gonna need you to get back in. Because the poor cops out front trying to keep the chaos at a minimum, you’re making their jobs harder.’ So at first I was all for it, and then I had to try and reel him back in.”
Kelce explained that he got caught up in “the magic” of Bills Mafia while in Buffalo.
“It was incredible,” Jason said during the latest installment of his and Travis’ “New Heights” podcast. “I mean, honestly, one of the most fun experiences I’ve ever had from start to finish.”
The All-Pro center, who stopped at a few tailgates while on his way into the stadium, said he chugged alcohol out of a bowling ball and downed 40 Miller Lites — and was fully incorporated in Bills Mafia traditions.
Jason claimed Kylie wasn’t too pleased when he jumped out of the suite and let out a shirtless roar.
“Not gonna lie, I gave Kylie a heads up the moment we got into the suite. I said, ‘I’m jumping out there and taking my shirt off,’ and she said, ‘Jason, don’t you dare!’” he said.
“I’m not asking for permission, I’m doing this.’ She was already telling me to be on my best behavior because we were meeting Taylor. So, she was like, ‘Be on your best behavior,’ and I was like ‘Kylie, the first day I met you I was blacked out drunk and fell asleep on the bar.'”
That’s when Travis chimed in: “Tay said she absolutely loved you.”
Jason also reflected on his missed opportunity to go through a table.
“I was hoping I was going to get an opportunity to go through a table but it didn’t happen,” he said. “No tables … I don’t know what I was expecting but everyone was beyond excited to be there and enjoy some good football.”
Jason did not share his tailgate plans for this weekend’s AFC Championship in Baltimore, where he and Kylie will be in attendance, on Sunday at 3 p.m. ET.
