KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI: Travis Kelce made a stylish yet meaningful entry before the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday Night Football clash in his "Getaway Car".

Before his team took on their divisional rival, the Los Angeles Chargers on December 8, Taylor Swift’s boyfriend arrived at Arrowhead Stadium in a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, as per Daily Mail.



 

The car has a special connection with the athlete's Operation Breakthrough program -  a charity aimed at the betterment of families and children in the Kansas City area.

Travis Kelce’s drive on Sunday was a courtesy to the students of the Operation Breakthrough program’s Ignition Lab, who transformed the vintage vehicle into an all-electric car with the help of MINDDRIVE. It now sports a 2016 Tesla Model S large rear drive unit and an 87kWh battery pack. 

The tight end's objective was to promote the vehicle, that would be raffled off for the charity.

For the stylish entry, the Super Bowl winner donned a pair of beige cargo pants, a navy V-neck relaxed-fit sweater, and white sneakers.

Upon entering the driveway, the 35-year-old posed standing in front of the bonnet of the vehicle before entering the building.

While the car may be vintage, the refurbished model features all the requisite modern conveniences including electric power windows and locks, upgraded air conditioning, and a Dakota Digital Dash Instrument Cluster hat that seamlessly incorporates the modern-day amenities into the vintage body.

It also boasts a magnificent audio experience as it has been fitted with a 1200-watt Bluetooth stereo system with hands-free voice-activated options.

Kelce, who has been associated with Operation Breakthrough for almost a decade, launched Ignition Lab in 2020. 

Through his Eighty-Seven & Running Foundation, the star Chiefs player bought land to develop a STEM facility for high school children at Operation Breakthrough. 

Kelce is also involved in other charities. Earlier this year, he partnered with food brand Kodiak to provide hot breakfasts for hundreds of families in the Kansas City area.

Taylor Swift didn't attend Travis Kelce's Chiefs vs Chargers game

While Travis Kelce was all smiles while promoting the social cause, his pop superstar girlfriend, Taylor Swift, was noticeably absent as she was busy taking the stage for one final time for her record-breaking Eras Tour in Vancouver, Canada.

The ‘So High School’ hitmaker had watched her man play in the Arrowhead Stadium in all the past six home games of the Chiefs. On Sunday, the Chiefs went on to defeat the Chargers 19-17.
