Travis Kelce wears Iowa State mascot headgear after losing bet with Chiefs' Brad Gee
View Date:2024-12-23 22:49:06
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce took reporters by surprise on Thursday, and it had nothing to do with Taylor Swift.
Kelce strolled into his Thursday press conference donning the headgear of Cy the Cardinal, Iowa State's mascot.
Kelce's alma mater, the Cincinnati Bearcats, lost to the Cyclones 30-10 in Week 7 of the college football season. The Cyclones trailed 7-3 after the first quarter before Iowa State quarterback Rocco Becht turned the game in the Cyclones' favor.
Kelce reportedly wore the headgear after losing a bet with Brad Gee, Chiefs vice president of communications and an Iowa State alum.
"Another friendly wager," Kelce explained. "Unfortunately, my Bearcats are struggling right now in the Big 12. It's all right, we got Baylor this week, hopefully we can bounce back and get the train rolling."
