The Buffalo Bills will be selling Taylor Swift-themed food during this weekend’s AFC Divisional game against the Kansas City Chiefs at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York.

 

Delaware North announced the arrival of two new options this week, as fans await new updates on whether Swift will turn up in Buffalo to watch her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, play on Sunday.

The first dish in honor of the songstress is called the ‘Bad Blood waffle fries’ and it includes two feet of fries with delicacies from Buffalo and Kansas City – blue cheese and pulled pork, respectively.

The other meal is named the ‘Karma Quesadilla’ and it features chicken tenders, bacon and pork belly in between shells.

It remains unclear if Swift will get the opportunity to try the food, but weather won’t be an excuse for her to miss her beau’s second-round playoff game as she attended the Chiefs’ wild-card win against the Dolphins in snowy and freezing Kansas City last weekend.

It remains unclear if Swift will be at Highmark Stadium in Buffalo for the AFC Divisional game

Delaware North – an American multinational food service and hospitality company, operating global attractions such as the Boston Celtics‘ TD Garden and the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida – has been the Bill’s in-stadium food caterer all season long.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen hopes that home-field advantage will help him and his teammates avoid another playoff loss to the Chiefs as both sides will face off for the third team in the last four years in the playoffs, with Kansas City winning the last two contests.

‘They’re at the top of the mountain. They know what it takes to get there. We’ve yet to do that,’ said Allen, whose lone AFC championship game appearance ended in a 38-24 loss at Kansas City.

‘As a competitor, to be in a situation like this is something you dream about.’

Sunday’s game will also mark Patrick Mahomes’ first time experiencing the full roar of fans at Highmark Stadium. His only other game at Buffalo was played in an empty stadium due to COVID-19 restrictions in 2020.

‘Even though I know it’s going to be hostile and there are going to be people talking trash and everything like that, I’m excited for it because it’s one of the best environments in football,’ Mahomes said.

‘And you want to do that when you grow up watching these games in the best environments and see what it’s like.’

Taylor Swift has had to ensure she is clued up on all things football since she started dating Travis Kelce. According to the father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Swift has been doing her research behind the scenes.

 

The Cruel Summer singer is now a regular presence at Arrowhead Stadium after she became official with Chiefs tight end Kelce in September.

Swift is often seen mixing socially with the likes of Brittany Mahomes, the wife of the NFL star, and apparently has even met the 28-year-old’s father too.

Mahomes‘ father, former MLB pitcher Pat Mahomes, recently opened up on his experience meeting the 12-time Grammy Award winner.

And in doing so, he revealed how Swift, 34, sat through an NFL documentary series ‘Quarterback’, which may have surprised her beau Kelce.

“She’s down to earth. I actually walked up and introduced myself to her, and she said she knew who I was because she had watched the ‘Quarterback’ series,” Mahomes Sr said.

“You know, down to earth, she took a picture with me and my wife, and also took a picture with me and my daughter.

“She was genuine and every time I hung out with her, she acted like a normal person.”

Taylor Swift still loved up with Travis Kelce

Swift and Kelce have been inseparable since they got together four months ago and reports of an argument between the couple over the festive period seemed to be wide of the mark.

Based on their public display on Saturday, the pair are still very much smitten with each other after Swift watched the frigid 26-7 victory over the Miami Dolphins.

Despite temperatures dropping way below freezing, the 34-year-old was happy to dance along with Kelce‘s mom Donna and other fans in the wild-card playoffs fixture.

After the game, Swift and Kelce were spotted leaving Arrowhead by each other’s side. Their whirlwind romance has left many speculating when Kelce might decide to propose, although he is in no rush to put a ring on her finger before Valentine’s Day.

The Bills and Highmark Stadium are looking to capitalize on the Taylor Swift effect, even as it’s unclear whether she will attend her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s playoff game in Buffalo.

 

The Bills’ food provider Delaware North announced it will offer some culinary delights with a nod to the Grammy-winning artist when the Chiefs and Bills clash Sunday night for a spot in the AFC Championship game.

The other Swift dish that will be offered at Highmark Stadium is a Karma Quesadilla.

The Bills are hoping for good karma this time as quarterback Josh Allen is 3-3 all-time against Kansas City and Patrick Mahomes, but the Chiefs have won both playoff meetings in 2021 and 2022 — denying Buffalo a trip to the Super Bowl in the 2021 AFC Championship game

This will be the first time the two quarterbacks will meet in a playoff game in Buffalo, where snow is still covering large parts of the stands.

Swift, 34, has become a regular at Chiefs games this season when she wasn’t on her uber-successful Eras Tour — often hanging out in boxes with Kelce’s mom Donna or Mahomes’ wife Brittany.

She attended the Chiefs’ home playoff game last week, a 26-7 win over the Dolphins, where she wore a custom Kelce jacket designed but Kristin Juszczyk, the wife of 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk.

Swift and Kelce, the two-time Super Bowl champion, went public with their relationship in September, two months after the tight end began his flirtations with her.

Engagement rumors have also begun around the couple.

At least one person is hoping Taylor Swift has a “Sad Beautiful Tragic” moment Sunday night.

 

During Friday night’s “Anderson Cooper 360,” CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten was doing a live hit from outside Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y. and said he hopes the pop sensation is in tears at the end of the Chiefs’ matchup against Buffalo in the AFC divisional round.

While holding a shovel and wearing some Bills gear, Enten added that he’s a big Swiftie — but that’s he’s a bigger supporter of the Bills.

“I will note the Bills have already beaten the Chiefs in Kansas City when Taylor Swift showed up,” Enten said. “So while I do enjoy Taylor Swift’s music, as I know you do — we’re both Swifties at heart — I’m hoping she’s probably crying at the end of Sunday because that’ll mean my Buffalo Bills have won.”

“So this is the one time I am rooting against Taylor Swift. I am sorry, Swifties, I’ve got to do it.”

Cooper did not hold back with how he felt with Enten’s words against the “Cruel Summer” singer.

“Wow, that’s kind of harsh,” Cooper assessed.

As Enten noted, the Chiefs fell to the Bills, 20-17, on Dec. 10 at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City with Swift in attendance.

Swift’s beau, Travis Kelce, did finish with six catches and 83 yards that game, but the Bills had the last laugh with the victory.

That game was a turning point for Buffalo, as it was the Bills’ first of five straight wins to end the season, leading them to overtake the Dolphins for the AFC East title.

That proved important for both team’s in Sunday’s matchup in that it meant that the Chiefs will go on the road for this week’s AFC divisional round clash, the first time quarterback Patrick Mahomes will play a road playoff game in his career.

Temperatures on Sunday in Orchard Park are expected to hit a high of 24 degrees with a low of 18, according to Weather.com, which might actually feel balmy for the Chiefs after their postseason opener.

Last Saturday against the Dolphins, Kansas City kicked off in sub-zero temps, hitting as low as minus-8 degrees.

Multiples fans were transported from Arrowhead Stadium with frostbite or hypothermia, while head coach Andy Reid was seen on the sidelines growing icicles from his mustache.

Now, Kelce, Mahomes and the Chiefs — as rare underdogs — will try to win their third straight playoff game against the Bills, whom they toppled in the 2020 and 2021 postseasons.

A man was arrested on Saturday for allegedly trying to break into Taylor Swift’s New York City apartment in Tribeca.

A spokesperson for the New York Police Department tells Page Six that officers received a call about a “disorderly person” on Franklin Street.

“Upon arrival, [police] were informed that the individual attempted to open a door to a building at the location,” the public information officer adds.

Although police did not confirm that the man — whose identity has not yet been released — was trying to get into Swift’s residence, a separate source confirms they witnessed the suspect attempting to enter her place.

“I first saw him around 1 p.m. — he went up to Taylor’s door,” the eyewitnesses says.

“I’m not sure if he knocked or rang the doorbell.”

The source also points out that they have witnessed the individual scouring the neighborhood — particularly around where Swift lives — “for a few weeks.”

A second source, who lives nearby, tells Page Six exclusively that they have also witnessed the same man “lurking here for a month.”

We’re told he’s been “sleeping on the stoop, chain-smoking constantly, shouting, and generally making everyone uncomfortable.”

“When he arrived before Christmas, my husband asked what he was doing here and he said, ‘I want to see Taylor,’” the neighbor claims. “He even had flowers at one point.”

The fellow resident tells us they called police “many times” but officers did not do anything until the man actually tried to get into the building.

“I asked him to leave this morning and he just stared at me, catatonic,” the neighbor adds. “Total nutcase.”

Our first insider says that once police arrived at around 1:45 p.m. ET in several patrol cars, officers spoke to the alleged stalker for “a few minutes before they cuffed him.”

“It was all pretty civil,” an eyewitness says. GC Images

“It was all pretty civil,” the eyewitness says. “He didn’t resist. There was no yelling or anything.”

Photos obtained by Page Six show the bearded individual with shaggy brown hair being booked.

He was wearing a tan hoodie, khaki pants, a navy blue jacket and tan gloves.

Police tell us the suspect was taken into custody because there was an active and unrelated warrant out for his arrest. He has not yet been released.

Page Six has reached out to Swift’s rep for comment but did not immediately hear back.

It appears that the pop superstar, 34, was still in the Big Apple — and likely at her residence — when the alleged stalker attempted his break-in.

A source tells Page Six exclusively they witnessed three of Swift’s bodyguards hanging around her apartment earlier on Saturday, just hours before the “disorderly” man arrived.

The “You Belong With Me” singer is expected to be at Highmark Stadium in upstate New York Sunday for the Kansas City Chiefs and her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s game against the Buffalo Bills. However, her attendance has not yet been confirmed.

While Kelce, also 34, prepares for his next playoff game, Swift has been in New York working on new music in the studio before she takes off for the international leg of her Eras Tour in February.

The Grammy-winning songstress is no stranger to getting stalked in the concrete jungle, though.

In 2019, a different man, Roger Alvarado, was arrested for trying to break into her Tribeca residence.

Taylor Swift blew a kiss after someone greeted her by yelling “Bills by a billion,” upon arriving at Highmark Stadium to watch boyfriend Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs face the Buffalo Bills in a divisional playoff game on Sunday night.

 

The pop music superstar was escorted by a heavy security presence to a suite overlooking the west end zone, and located just below the name of Bills Hall of Fame coach Marv Levy’s name on the stadium’s Wall of Fame.

Swift was wearing a white jacket with red Chiefs trim, and featuring a large red star.

The 12-time Grammy Award winner has become a regular at Chiefs home and away games since the two began dating earlier this season.

Earlier in the game, Travis showed love to girlfriend Swift after scoring a touchdown in the second quarter of the game as he formed a heart with his hands towards the direction of the singer’s suite.

The gesture was also made by Swift to fans while she performed “Fearless” during the Eras Tour.

It was also a family affair at the playoffs on Sunday, as Swift was joined in the suite by Kelce’s parents Donna and Ed Kelce, older brother Jason Kelce —  whose Philadelphia Eagles team was eliminated in the playoffs on Jan. 15. — and Jason’s wife Kylie Kelce.

During the game, which the Chiefs won 27-24, Swift was pictured chatting to Donna, who was included in PEOPLE’s 25 Most Intriguing People of the Year in December, as they rallied together to cheer on Travis.

The “Karma” singer was also seen chatting and laughing with Kylie, 31, ahead of the playoff game on Sunday.

Swift’s appearance at the playoffs comes as the singer has attended several Chiefs games in recent months in support of Travis after the pair went public with their romance in September 2023.

The singer was first seen at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City to watch the Chiefs defeat the Chicago Bears 41-10 on Sept. 24.

The Chiefs are now 8-3 with Swift in attendance.

Last month, a source exclusively told PEOPLE that Swift and Travis are “really happy” together, “but they’re still seeing where it goes.”

“They’re having a lot of fun,” the insider added of the pair’s relationship.

For the first time in months, Taylor Swift wasn’t the biggest star in the stands at a Kansas City Chiefs game. This week, it was Jason Kelce.

Coming off a playoff loss last weekend with the Philadelphia Eagles — for whom he plays center — and a week of rumors about his possible retirement, Jason Kelce spent his first weekend off cheering on his younger brother, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, in Buffalo.

With just three minutes left in the first half, Travis Kelce made it into the end zone for his first touchdown of the game.

After he chucked the football into the stands, he blew a kiss and made a heart with his hands, appearing to signal that the TD was scored for his girlfriend, Swift, who was watching in a box from above.

Swift promptly celebrated her beau’s success with others in her suite.

Seconds later, in true older brother fashion, Jason Kelce wildly celebrated his little brother’s TD.

Despite below-freezing temperatures and even colder wind chills at Highmark Stadium, Jason Kelce ripped his shirt off to celebrate the scoring drive.

As if that wasn’t enough, the elder Kelce brother proceeded to pound a beer and jump into the crowd below him, where he was met with boos by Bills fans before he hopped back up into the suite.

Both moments went viral almost immediately.

Throughout the game, the camera panned to the star-studded suite, which also featured Jason Kelce’s wife, Kylie Kelce, and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ wife, Brittany Mahomes.

Taylor Swift’s Newest Chiefs Jacket Cost $1,800—Here’s Where She Got ItThe ‘Blank Space’ singer also sported a red beanie upon arrival at Highmark Stadium.

The jacket Taylor Swift wore at the Kansas City Chiefs-Buffalo Bills NFL playoff game on Jan. 21 will cost a pretty penny for any fan who wants to add it to their own wardrobe.

The “Blank Space” singer arrived at Highmark Stadium Sunday afternoon dressed in the Chiefs’ colors. She wore a red and cream varsity jacket and a bright red beanie.

The Swedish retailer Gant sells the jacket, according to Page Six. It is listed on the brand’s website as a collaboration between artist Kilo Kish and the company’s Blank Canvas Project. And for those curious, the jacket costs a cool $1,800.

Kish designed the jacket to have an oversized fit. All proceeds from jacket sales are going toward the Watts Labor Community Action Committee, a charity Kish supports, according to Gant’s product listing.

One of Swift’s fan accounts on X posted images of the jacket as seen from the front and back for others interested in learning more about the fashion item.

Last weekend, Swift generated buzz with another jacket she wore while attending an NFL playoff game in support of her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. That earlier jacket was custom-made by Kristin Juszczyk, who owns Designs by Kristin and is married to San Francisco 49ers player Kyle Juszczyk. The Bay Area-based designer also made a custom jacket for Brittany Mahomes, who is married to Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Swift has attended several NFL games since taking her “Swelce” relationship public last fall. During the Chiefs’ Jan. 21 playoff game in New York, Swift met Travis’ brother and sister-in-law, Jason and Kylie Kelce, for the first time. The brothers’ parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, were also spotted cheering for the Chiefs with Swift in their shared box.
