Breaking News:Taylor Swift fans celebrate one year anniversary of Travis Kelce shooting his shot at pop star on ‘New Heights’ podcast
A year after he took his chance and missed, Taylor Swift fans celebrated the anniversary of Travis Kelce ‘shooting his shot’ with the pop star and praised his persistence.
On July 26, 2023, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end revealed on an episode of the New Heights podcast that he tried to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it.
While that effort was one of the few times he did not succeed at Arrowhead Stadium, the pair and their fairytale romance would later dominate headlines, which they continue to do today. As a result, Swifties took to X to commend his bravery.
‘Forever thankful for friendship bracelet, New Heights and Jason [Kelce] being an inquisitive big brother,’ on user wrote.
‘Travis Kelce got Taylor Swift’s attention one year ago today,’ another wrote. ‘The rest is history.’

A third referred to their story as a ‘real life romantic comedy.’
Meanwhile, a fourth quipped ‘Well Travis, you knew what you wanted and boy, you got her.’
Before Kelce, Swift dated actor Joe Alwyn for six years. Three months after their split, Swift played a concert in Kansas City, where the Chiefs tight end attempted to reach her to no avail.
Once Kelce took to his chart-topping podcast and admitted defeat, he eventually got Swift’s attention.
‘I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,’ Kelce said then.
