00:00 Ed Kelsey had a moment where he struggled with recalling the singer's name — Taylor
00:04 Swift arguably may be the biggest pop star in the world, but her boyfriend's dad couldn't
00:09 quite place her when they met for the first time — Ed Kelsey jokingly said he felt like
00:13 a real idiot when not being able to recall Swift's name during their interaction at
00:17 his NFL star son Travis Kelsey's home.
00:21 During a conversation on Odyssey's 92.3 The Fan in Cleveland, Ed Kelsey spoke about
00:26 how before a Kansas City Chiefs game in Kansas City, Missouri, many of the tight end's friends
00:31 gather at his home — when Travis has a lot of friends coming into town to go to the game,
00:37 everyone meets at his house, although he's not there.
00:40 Ed Kelsey said, adding that at that time his son's already at the game preparing.
00:45 "They have a shuttle that comes and picks everybody up and takes them to the game."
00:50 Ed Kelsey added that at any given home game, you can end up with 20 people in there.
00:55 For a dad like him, he said that from his perspective, he's probably met some of them
01:00 but cannot for the life of me picture — remember who they are.
01:04 And then comes in Swift, he recalled, and Taylor comes in, walks in with a security
01:09 guard and I look at her, and I had my girlfriend with me and I mentioned to Maureen, "Oh, my
01:14 God, I know this kid but I don't know what her name is."
01:17 "Geez, you know, like a real idiot," Ed Kelsey said.
01:23 His girlfriend then told him, "You don't know her."
01:26 This is Taylor Swift, you idiot," Ed Kelsey didn't specify before which game this incident
01:31 happened.
01:32 However, he and Swift have been photographed multiple times together while in a suite at
01:37 the Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, including an Oct. 12 and Dec. 25, 2023 game.
01:45 The hosts, Andy Baskin and Jeff Phelps, poked fun at Ed Kelsey saying, "That would make
01:50 you a father."
01:51 Meanwhile, someone who seemingly appears to be up-to-date on Swift is Travis Kelsey's
01:57 mom, Donna Kelsey.
01:59 Since Swift and Travis Kelsey's relationship was confirmed and made public, the two ladies
02:04 have been seen sitting together at multiple games — during an October appearance on
02:08 Today, Donna Kelsey briefly touched on her son's personal life — "It's fairly new,
02:14 so I don't like to talk about it," she said.
02:16 "It's just one of those things where you know, obviously everybody saw me.
02:21 I was in the boxes with her and it's just another thing that's amped up my life."
02:26 Donna Kelsey, who is also mother to NFL Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelsey, recently told
02:33 Nat FL about how sports and Swift fans have embraced her, "Everybody that's come up
02:38 to me has been very gracious, very supportive, and they tell me that they love my boys,"
02:43 she says.
02:44 "What mom doesn't want to hear that?"
02:46 "When she's in attendance, especially if she's sitting near Swift, all eyes and cameras
02:51 appear to be on them, something she finds quite comical — it's kind of funny that
02:56 they're following an old lady," she joked.
02:58 "But it's obviously because of my boys and who they know, so I totally understand the
03:03 glamour about it, but I'm just a regular mom like everybody else."
