Watch: Fans Leave Travis Kelce Stunned, Viciously Boo Him at Dallas Mavericks Game

By Samantha Chang May 27, 2024 at 5:22am

Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce got booed by Dallas Mavericks fans at the American Airlines Center during Game 3 of the NBA Western Conference finals on Sunday.

In contrast, his teammate, quarterback Patrick Mahomes, was showered with cheers and applause when he was shown on screen.

At the time, the reigning Super Bowl champs were sitting next to each other courtside.

In a video excerpt posted on the social media platform X, Kelce sarcastically feigned shock on the jumbotron when the boos rained down on him.

The camera then shifted to Mahomes, who got a very different reaction. (The star quarterback is a native Texan and a longtime Mavericks fan.)

To add insult to injury, the Dallas Mavericks hilariously trolled Kelce on social media by referring to him as “Taylor Swift’s boyfriend” instead of by his proper name.

Meanwhile, Mahomes was called “our guy Pat.”

Swift’s high-profile romance with Kelce dominated the most recent football season.

The liberal pop star’s sudden visibility in the NFL caused a backlash among some hardcore fans, who found her omnipresence annoying and distracting.

Numerous people commented on the Mavericks’ good-natured jab at Kelce.

Taylor Swift boyfriend. They did bro dirty

Some X users suggested the boos were backlash stemming from Kelce’s promotion of the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine.

The pharmaceutical giant hired him to push the jab in commercials and social media posts last fall.

Probably b/c Kelce is a Pfizer pawn

Kelce is a woke sellout

Strange. I thought people liked men with no back bone and promoted anything that will give him money.

Four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers — who was viciously maligned by the corporate media for questioning the safety and efficacy of the jab — referred to the tight end as “Mr. Pfizer” and suggested they debate the topic.

Do you like Travis Kelce?

Kelce’s popularity took another hit among conservatives when he began dating pop star Swift, an abortion superfan and LGBT activist who endorsed Joe Biden for president in 2020.

To her marginal credit, the left-wing entertainer has not endorsed Biden (yet) this election cycle.

A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

I heard a chilling comment the other day: “We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.”

That wasn’t said by a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday prophet. No, former U.S. national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said that to the founder of The Western Journal, Floyd Brown.

Gen. Flynn’s warning means that the 2024 election is the most important election for every single living American. If we lose this one to the wealthy elites who hate us, hate God, and hate what America stands for, we can only assume that 248 years of American history and the values we hold dear to our hearts may soon vanish.

The end game is here, and as Benjamin Franklin said, “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”

All of this means that without you, it’s over. We have the platform, the journalists, and the experience to fight back hard, but Big Tech is strangling us through advertising blacklists, shadow bans, and algorithms. Did you know that we’ve been blacklisted by 90% of advertisers? Without direct support from you, our readers, we can’t continue the fight.

Can we count on your support? It may not seem like much, but a Western Journal Membership can make all the difference in the world because when you support us directly, you cut Big Tech out of the picture. They lose control.

A monthly Western Journal Membership costs less than one coffee and breakfast sandwich each month, and it gets you access to ALL of our content — news, commentary, and premium articles. You’ll experience a radically reduced number of ads, and most importantly you will be vitally supporting the fight for America’s soul in 2024.

We are literally counting on you because without our members, The Western Journal would cease to exist. Will you join us in the fight?

Sincerely,

Josh Manning

Deputy Managing Editor
