Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl after-party falls flat after devastating loss

The Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, who had Taylor Swift cheering on him alongside Ice Spice and the Haim sisters, was seen heading straight to the suite where the pop star and his family sat at the Caesars Superdome after the game.

The loss clearly stung, as evidenced by Coach Andy Reid's post-game message: "This one’s gonna hurt. Let it hurt and figure out how to get better because of it."

During a post-game interview, Kelce reflected on his team's struggles during the game, breaking down what went wrong. He also took a moment to congratulate the Eagles on their well-earned victory. 

Meanwhile, the Eagles had no such reservations when it came to celebrating their 40-22 win. 

According to an insider, their afterparty at Hilton Riverside Hotel was a full-fledged victory bash, featuring a live performance from Sexyy Red and a feast of Southern comfort food, including beignets and King Cake cupcakes.

Anne Hathaway, Bradley Cooper, and Pete Davidson were among the celebrities backing the Chiefs' rivals, soaking in the excitement and celebrating their Super Bowl victory.

Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes skip the Chiefs' Super Bowl after-party 

Following the Super Bowl LIX loss, Travis Kelce chose to skip his team’s official afterparty. Instead of joining the festivities, the All-Pro tight end, known for his high-energy persona both on and off the field, decided to keep things low-key.

A viral video circulating on X (formerly Twitter) showed Kelce FaceTiming with The Chainsmokers, who were performing at the event. Despite the loss, Kelce appeared to be in good spirits, smiling while chatting with Alex Pall and Drew Taggart. DJ Dom Dolla also made a brief appearance on the call.

A source revealed that several star players, including quarterback Patrick Mahomes, also chose to forgo the party and instead retreated to their rooms or private accommodations.

For Kelce, who had Swift cheering him on from a VIP suite, the night may have ended in disappointment, but the focus is already shifting to what’s next for the Chiefs' star and his future in the NFL.
