At colleague and close friend Travis Kelce’s charity event on Saturday, Patrick Mahomes and his spouse Brittany were among the celebrities in attendance; yet, the quarterback’s focus seemed to be elsewhere.
The star of the Chiefs celebrated his 35th 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡day this past weekend and showed his support for his teammate’s Kelce Car Jam.
Nevertheless, Mahomes had another reason to cheer at the Saturday night charity game.
Playoff baseball returned to the Bronx as the Kansas City Royals and New York Yankees began their ALDS series.
Additionally, Kelce said that throughout the charity event, Mahomes, a huge fan of the Royals, was nervously observing their neighboring Kansas City sports club.

“Somewhere back there, we have Pat Mahomes,” Kelce declared from the platform. “At the moment, he’s glued to his Royals.”
Although Kelce’s event went well, the Royals’ performance was not as good. The first game of the series ended in a 6-5 loss for Kansas City in a close, dramatic thriller played in New York.
On Monday night, Game 2 will take place in the Bronx, where Bobby Witt Jr. and company will attempt to square the series before returning to Kansas City.
Meanwhile, Kelce’s 87 & Running Foundation, which raises money for kids in Cleveland and Kansas City, will benefit from the charity block party’s revenues.
Patrick and Brittany attended the second annual Kelce Car Jam, which is a display of fancy vehicles owned by the Chiefs player and his pals, to show their support.
While Brittany has developed a good relationship with Kelce’s partner Taylor Swift over the past year, the Chiefs quarterback is close friends with his tight end.

When the pair arrived at the charity event in Kansas City, they were met by a large number of admirers.
On Monday, Kelce and Mahomes will be back on the field when the Chiefs visit Arrowhead Stadium to play the New Orleans Saints.
Since joining ESPN as an NFL commentator, Jason Kelce, a former center for the Eagles, has never called a game involving his younger brother.
Just before Mahomes, Jason and his parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, arrived at the charity function.George Karlaftis, a defensive end for Kansas City, was also seen at Kelce Car Jam.

Patrick and Brittany Mahomes arrived in a black Ferrari but Kelce planned to show off the 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle that he famously drove Swift around Kansas City in last year.
‘This year is the second year we’ve done a car show, basically a block-party style event, that will showcase some of the city’s top automobiles from the Fuel House, a fun car club out here,’ Kelce said.
And after that, I assume, a number of others who are in line. It will be enjoyable. My old school ’70 Chevelle should be all fired up and ready to go. If not, I will bring one of my other vehicles.
Swift and Kelce have gone on multiple double dates. During the US Open championship last month at Flushing Meadows, both couples witnessed Jannik Sinner defeat Taylor Fritz in the men’s final.
