Taylor Swift was in attendance as the Buffalo Bills hosted the Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL playoffs, and she spotted a sign from a fan mocking her relationship with Travis Kelce.
Taylor Swift spotted a hilarious poster made by Buffalo Bills fans as she arrived at Highmark Stadium on Sunday.
The sign was a playful take on the viral ‘distracted boyfriend’ meme, featuring Swift, Josh Allen and Travis Kelce. The Kansas City Chiefs will battle it out with the Bills for a spot in the AFC Championship, and Bills fans, excited about Swift’s visit, couldn’t resist making some cheeky memes about Kelce and the Chiefs.
One fan’s creative sign showed Swift glancing back at Bills quarterback Josh Allen while holding hands with her beau, Kelce. The fan was front row when Swift walked into the stadium, and the singer noticed the sign as she arrived.
This meme has been a hit online for years, with countless edits made for different moments and situations. Kelce is currently one of the most talked-about players in the NFL, thanks in part to his relationship with Swift.
Swift and Kelce have been an item since the summer, but their romance only became public knowledge when she attended a Chiefs vs. Chicago Bears game earlier this season. Since then, she’s been a regular supporter and was at Arrowhead Stadium to watch the Chiefs triumph over the Miami Dolphins in her first playoff experience.
The playoff game was one of the chilliest on record, with temperatures dropping to -20 degrees Celsius. It’s a similar temperature in Buffalo this weekend, and fans were asked to help clear snow at the stadium before Sunday’s game.

Last week, the Bills’ Wild Card game against the Pittsburgh Steelers was delayed by 27 hours due to a heavy snowstorm. Fans were paid $20 an hour to help shovel snow. The same incentive was offered this weekend, and the field looks spotless ahead of kickoff.
Everyone expected Taylor Swift to be at the game, and she even received a message from Bryon Brown, the mayor of Buffalo. “There are many Swifties here in Buffalo and Western New York. She’s going to be welcomed here with open arms,” said Brown.
“And the treatment that she receives here will be so warm and so good that it will ease the pain that she will feel from the Chiefs losing the game.” There’s a serious rivalry between Allen and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, with both teams regularly meeting in the playoffs.
In the regular season, Allen has a 3-1 record over Mahomes, but the Chiefs quarterback saves his best performances for the big occasion. Mahomes is 2-0 over Allen in the playoffs and has two Super Bowl rings to show for it.
