Ben Blanchet December 26, 2023, 4:20 AM EST Tony Romo made the same mistake twice after calling out Taylor Swift’s wife Travis Kelce on Monday. The former quarterback and CBS analyst booed the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day after his 900th career reception against the Las Vegas Raiders at Arrowhead Stadium. “And his wife loves it, I mean, girlfriend,” Romo said, prompting laughs from play-by-play announcer Jim Nantz. “You’ve been down this road before,” Nantz replied. Most recently, Romo took a Swift slide during the Chiefs’ game against the Buffalo Bills earlier this month. “It’s awesome,” Kelce said after catching a pass from Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes on 3rd-and-18. “Most people hijack it like you see Kelce’s wife Taylor Swift in the audience – sorry.” “Not yet,” Nantz replied. Romo’s mistake follows months of media coverage of the couple’s romance. The “Karma” singer-songwriter revealed in her Time Magazine Person of the Year 2023 profile that their relationship began after Kelce sent her on a podcast with her brother Jason. Kelce said in July that he wanted to give Swift a friendship bracelet with her phone number at an Eras Tour show at Arrowhead Stadium. “We started hanging out right after that. So we really had a lot of time that no one knew about, which I’m thankful for because we got to know each other,” Swift told Time. “When I went to the first game, we were a couple. I think some people think they saw our first date at that game? We’d never be psycho enough to go on a first date.” Swift has attended several Kelce games this season, including Monday, when she brought her mom Andrea, dad Scott and brother Austin dressed as Santa Claus. The singer, who rocked a Christmas hat with Kelce’s No. 87 jersey during the game, later held the football star’s hand as they left the game after the Chiefs’ 20-14 loss to the Raiders.
