Stephen A Smith revealed to Travis Kelce that he spent $20,000 on tickets to see the Chiefs tight end’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, in concert during the Eras Tour.
The ‘absurd’ amount came through resale, as Kelce pointed out, with Smith buying a ticket for himself, his two daughters, and 10 of their friends.
The baker’s dozen of Swift tickets averages out to more than $1,500 per stub for the worldwide tour that concluded last month. Smith gave his verdict on Swift’s extravaganza as well.
‘I went to her concert,’ Smith said. ‘Yo, Travis, it’s the greatest concert I’ve ever been to in my life.’
‘My daughters hoodwinked me because they got me to take 10 of their friends. Now that was two thousand a pop, I spent $20,000 on that [expletive] concert.’
‘I said, “this better be worth it” and I’ve got to confess, it was so [expletive] good I went twice.’
Smith did not confirm how much he spent on tickets to his second Eras Tour concert, or what city either show was in.
Kelce knows plenty about the Eras Tour, as he watched his girlfriend take the stage over the last 15 months in Argentina, Australia, Amsterdam, and Singapore.
Kelce also appeared on stage during one of Swift’s six sold-out concerts at Wembley Stadium in London as a backup dancer to a raucous cheer from the English crowd.
Smith also maintained he did not listen to Swift’s music before going to the Eras Tour concert.
When the broadcaster went back to a Swift stadium show for a second time, Smith admitted to singing along.
Kelce confirmed earlier this week that Swift will be in attendance for his next game, a Divisional playoff against the Houston Texans, on Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium.
