Patrick Mahomes Sr. almost waged a war against Taylor Swift fans after addressing whether he’d be present in the same suite as her at the game. Although there’s no one left in the whole world who doesn’t know, Swift is dating his son Patrick Jr.’s Kansas City Chiefs teammate, Travis Kelce. Anyway, Patrick Sr. replied, “I hope not,” when asked during the “Evan & Tiki” show if he’d be sitting near Swift during one of Patrick Jr.’s games (via People). He continued, “No, I don’t think so. Travis normally has his own thing, and Patrick has his own deal, too. … I imagine if Taylor wants her own suite, she’s got enough money to get whichever one she wants.” Patrick Sr. also complimented Swift, calling her “down to earth.”
Although Swifties are easily the most loyal fans in the history of fandom, who always go to bat for Swift when she’s insulted, whether purposefully or accidentally, their responses have actually been buried by the other side. Surprisingly, Patrick. Sr. actually received a ton of support for his comments — mostly from Swift’s haters, who don’t appreciate the continued attention she commands when she attends NFL games. “Bro just wants to watch his son play football and not be shown every 5 plays,” tweeted one fan. “He just wants to watch the game, not be [a part] of the charade,” wrote a second observer. Meanwhile, another fan tweeted, “Bro just wants to sit and watch his son the GOAT play in peace.”
