Cleveland Heights natives and NFL stars Jason and Travis Kelce were the toast of the town on Tuesday night as they were honored by the Cleveland Cavaliers in their hometown.

The Kelce brothers, who grew up cheering for the Cavaliers, were met with a rousing ovation at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse as they attended the game against the Boston Celtics.

The Cavaliers paid tribute to Jason Kelce’s illustrious NFL career with a heartfelt video montage, showcasing his journey from Cleveland Heights High School to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Jason proudly displayed a Cleveland Heights T-shirt, while Travis held up a framed No. 62 Cavs jersey bearing the Kelce name.

In addition to the touching tribute, the Cavaliers immortalized the Kelce brothers with their very own bobblehead figures, which were sold to fans for charity.

Despite some minor discrepancies, Jason Kelce joked, “In person, I look way better than I was expecting.”

Proceeds from the bobblehead sales will benefit the Heights Schools Foundation Initiatives, supporting scholarships, grants, and programming for current students and staff at Cleveland Heights High School.

The highlight of the evening came when the Kelce brothers were caught on camera chugging beers from their floor seats, much to the delight of the crowd.

Known for their love of beer chugging, the Kelce brothers added some extra excitement to an already exhilarating game.

Speaking of excitement, the Cavaliers staged a remarkable comeback in the fourth quarter, overcoming a 22-point deficit to secure a thrilling 105-104 victory over the Celtics.

Led by a clutch dunk from Dean Wade in the final seconds, the Cavaliers outscored the Celtics 34-17 in the fourth quarter, snapping Boston’s 11-game winning streak and eight-game road winning streak in the process.

The loss marked a significant milestone for the Celtics, as their streak was the longest in the NBA this season, with the last five victories coming by an average margin of 30.2 points.

Travis Kelce regards his girlfriend Taylor Swift ‘the most beautiful and intelligent special made and best thing that has ever happened to him’ as he reveals all good things about his whirlwind trip to Australia to see the potential in her again…

Travis Kelce has called girlfriend Taylor Swift ‘the biggest and best thing possible’ after talking about his whirlwind trip to see her in Australia last month.

The NFL star landed in Sydney on February 22 to meet up with his popstar girlfriend after his Super Bowl victory with the Kansas City Chiefs and watch her perform one of her Eras Tour shows.

The A-list couple were also pictured on a day out at Sydney Zoo before Kelce took his place at Accor Stadium to watch his girlfriend perform in front of yet another sold-out crowd.

Speaking on the latest episode of their New Heights podcast, Kelce was full of praise for his lover’s talent and admitted he had a great time Down Under.

The couple were reportedly staying together at the high-end hotel Crown Towers in a suite that runs up over $16,300 USD ($25,000 AUD).

However, the couple’s reunion was short and sweet as Kelce boarded a flight just a couple of days later to return to the US for more celebrations with the Chiefs in Las Vegas.

When asked by brother Jason ‘what the hell is your life right now?’, Kelce said: ‘Well dude it’s a wild ride. I will tell you this, Australia did not disappoint.

‘Only went to Sydney, got a lot of friends I’ve met over the years that are out there in Melbourne and definitely want to get out there and see you guys and see what Melbourne has to offer.

‘But Sydney was a beautiful city, I want to say similar to Miami, a lot of intercoastal, it was cool to say the layout of the land over there, let alone the zoo and seeing the exotic animals.’

Jason interrupted his brother and asked how the couple were pictured as they walked around the zoo together.

Kelce continued: ‘There were full on helicopters just flying around.

‘They helicoptered us, well not us. This is all because Taylor is the biggest and the best thing possible.’

The animal rights nonprofit organization released a statement saying the couple should ‘spend their time and money at a true sanctuary,’ instead.

Talking about their day out together, Kelce said: ‘One of my favorite things – the zookeeper showing us the red panda, we had to go in a cage just to go and see the panda in the panda area.

‘And they are like “alright, make sure that door is closed when you get out. Quickly close this one because they are escape artists” and I was like this thing has got so many brownie points from me. These things are escape artists.’

Talking about their encounter with lions, Kelce continued: ‘Dude when you hear that roar – Taylor taking a picture and you see three of them run down from their perch knowing they are about to get fed, you see how fast and agile that thing is, it’s over.

‘You could tell one was the like big, bad – I was like damn, that’s a bad man right there. It was fun.’

In one clip from the Eras Tour show, a grinning Kelce could be seen trading friendship bracelets with Swifties. In another, he waved at screaming fans as he walked by.

Later in the show, Swift had an encore of her altered ‘Karma’ lyric, where she once again sang out ‘Karma is the guy on the Chiefs’ instead of ‘guy on the screen’.

Talking about the show, Kelce said: ‘Sydney did not disappoint. The crowds there are already rowdy, they were just a little bit louder than the Argentina crowd.

‘I was not expecting that because Argentina was f***ing loud. They were into it, so was Sydney.

‘Taylor is very fond of performing in Australia because of the crowds over there and how into it they get.’

When Jason pointed out there were a number of Kelce jerseys in the crowd, Travis replied: ‘There were a few. There’s a good American football crowd out there and Taylor fans, I think they wanted to show support.
