Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has returned to the site of his latest Super Bowl win and Travis Kelce may be en route to join him. The three-time Super Bowl winner has been spotted in Las Vegas this week, just two weeks after hoisting the Lombardi Trophy at Allegiant Stadium. The signal caller is said to have been in Sin City since Thursday, hitting The Strip for his friend’s Bachelor party.
Mahomes led a party of 20 to Carversteak at Resorts World, where they dined in the Whiskey Room, the private dining space at the luxury steakhouse, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. The Super Bowl MVP is said to have splashed out on a round of Don Julio 1942 tequila, which is listed as $58 per serving on the menu, for the table.

Secluded in the private space, the group are believed to have dined out on Wagyu cheesesteak bites, crab legs, while sinking Coors Light along with their round of tequila. On Friday night, the party were then seen dancing the night away at Zouk Nightclub – another familiar haunt of Mahomes’. The Chiefs had kickstarted their Super Bowl celebrations at the club before taking the party into the wee hours at XS Nightclub at Wynn Las Vegas.
The group were enjoying the bright lights of Las Vegas to celebrate Mahomes’ childhood friend and fellow Texas Tech alum Brennan McDaniel’s Bachelor party. It is not clear if any of Mahomes’ Chiefs teammates were with them but Kelce is believed to be on his way to join the party. Kelce had jetted out to Sydney, Australia following a week of celebrating the Chiefs’ Super Bowl triumph to reunite with girlfriend Taylor Swift and support her during her Eras Tour Down Under.
He only landed in Sydney on Wednesday and watched her perform one of her Eras Tour shows on Friday but he has already left Australia. TMZ claimed the tight end is flying back to Las Vegas to continue toasting the Super Bowl triumph with his teammates. Kelce is due to land in Las Vegas on Saturday morning after flying for roughly 15 hours in a journey similar to Swift’s when she flew from Japan to Nevada for the Super Bowl.
It’s claimed the Chiefs reunion in Las Vegas has been planned ever since they beat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime. Mahomes had promised his teammates a return trip to Vegas if they won the Super Bowl as motivation ahead of the big game. ‘This is a business trip. I told the guys that if we win, I’ll bring everyone back to Vegas to celebrate,’ Mahomes told NFL Network’s James Palmer in the buildup to the showdown. And the quarterback may now be fulfilling that promise.
It will be Kelce’s third trip to Vegas in two weeks. He was also there earlier this week to play some golf and relax with friends before flying out to meet up with Swift in Australia. A Las Vegas DJ posted on Instagram that he had been booked by the Chiefs for an event on Friday night but Kelce did not make it in time for that.
The tight end was fully embraced by his girlfriend’s loyal group of fans at Accor Stadium on Thursday night. In one clip from the show, a grinning Kelce could be seen trading friendship bracelets with the Swifties. In another video, he waved at screaming fans as he walked by. Swift decided to give two nods to her beau in the audience through her lyrics during the show.
During the second verse of her song ‘Long Live’ off her album ‘Speak Now’, Swift sang the line ‘We are the kings and the queens / You traded your baseball cap for a crown / When they gave us our trophies / And we held them up for our town.’Â At the mention of trophies, Swift held her guitar up and seemed to point out in the direction of Kelce in the audience.
That drew cheers from the packed audience at the Accor Stadium in the Olympic Park suburb of Sydney.
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’. 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).
Swift and Kelce also visited the Sydney Zoo during their time in the city – a move that was criticized by animal rights organization PETA . Meanwhile, Mahomes’ wife headed to Tulum with a gaggle of her girlfriends for McDaniel’s bride-to-be Mallory Moss’s Bachelorette. Mahomes had celebrated his own Bachelor party at Carversteak in 2022 ahead of tying the knot with Brittany in a beauty Hawaii wedding.
The couple also dined at the Sin City hotspot just days before Super Bowl LVIII to celebrate the former professional soccer player landing the cover of Sports Illustrated as a swimsuit rookie.
