Former Big League Pitcher and Father of Star QB Says He Doesn't Want to Sit in Same Suite as Taylor Swift on Sunday

Pat Mahomes Sr., a former big league pitcher, says he doesn't want to watch his son, Patrick Mahomes, from the same booth as Taylor Swift and Jason Kelce on Sunday in the AFC Championship Game.

The Kansas City Chiefs will play the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday in the AFC Championship Game. The Chiefs are looking advance to their third Super Bowl in the last four years, and their second straight.

Kansas City is led by superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce. As the Chiefs have navigated this season, they've become a major NFL storyline because of Kelce's relationship with pop music sensation Taylor Swift. Furthermore, Kelce's brother Jason, who just wrapped up a season with the Philadelphia Eagles, has entered the conversation because of his shirtless, beer-drinking antics in Buffalo for the AFC Divisional Round.

Mahomes's father, Pat Mahomes Sr., a former big league pitcher, recently told WFAN in New York that he doesn't want to watch the game from the same booth as Kelce and Swift.

Per the Daily Mail:

Patrick Mahomes Sr hopes he is not in the same booth as Jason Kelce and Taylor Swift when he watches the Kansas City Chiefs play the Baltimore Ravens for a place in the Super Bowl on Sunday.

The father of the Chiefs quarterback was talking to WFAN Sports Radio's Evan Roberts on Thursday night when he was asked if he will be joining the pair in the suite for Sunday's huge game.

'I hope not,' Mahomes Snr said with a chuckle. 'No, I don't think so. Travis normally has his own thing and Patrick has his own deal too.

'And I imagine if Taylor wants her own suite she's got enough money to get whichever one she wants.'

Now, he said it jokingly, but it still underscores the point, the elder Mahomes would rather focus on the game than the sideshow the Chiefs have become.

Mahomes spent 11 years in the big leagues with the Mets, Twins, Red Sox, Rangers, Cubs, and Pirates.

He went 42-39 lifetime with a 5.47 ERA.
