Jason Kelce recently shared an emotional experience from attending Taylor Swift's Eras Tour during an episode of "New Heights With Jason and Travis Kelce," the podcast he co-hosts with his brother, Travis Kelce. The retired Philadelphia Eagles center reflected on a specific moment during Swift's performance in London that brought him to tears.

Jason recounted how Swift’s tradition of giving her fedora hat to a fan during the song “22” moved him deeply. “I’ve never cried at a concert, and I was literally tearing up watching this little girl’s entire experience. It was so special,” Jason said. Travis, who is currently dating Swift, added, “She makes every show unique with the acoustic set.”

Jason highlighted the acoustic portion of Swift's performance as his favorite part. “It’s just her, a guitar and 90,000 people. To be good in front of 90,000 people with just that, you have to be amazing,” he noted, praising Swift's ability to captivate the audience with her songwriting and live performance skills. He described the experience as feeling “like you’re in a bar just listening to somebody play on a piano.”

Jason and his wife, Kylie, attended the first two of Swift’s three nights at Wembley Stadium. During the third night, Swift surprised the crowd by bringing Travis on stage for a performance of “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart,” although Jason did not discuss this moment on the podcast.

Swift later reflected on the Wembley performances on Instagram, expressing her amazement at the energy of the 90,000-strong crowds and sharing special moments from the shows. She also mentioned Travis's appearance, saying, “I’m still cracking up/swooning over @killatrav’s Eras Tour debut.”
