On an evening when the football field transformed into a stage of jests, Tom Brady found himself not dodging tackles but banters. The Netflix special “The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady” wasn’t just a game of throw and catch, but a match of wit and laugh.

Hosted by Kevin Hart, the live event on May 5, 2024, saw Brady in the crosshairs of humor, with Bill Belichick leading the charge. The Patriots’ coach, known more for his game-day scowls, surprised many with his comedic chops, referencing the pivotal moment Brady took over for Drew Bledsoe. The roast lineup included former Patriots like Randy Moss, Julian Edelman, and Rob Gronkowski, ensuring the night was as star-studded as Brady’s career.

Amidst the laughter, Brady’s quip about the Kansas City Chiefs’ fan base struck a chord. “Kansas City, you say your stadium is the loudest?” he teased, alluding to the Chiefs’ recent success and their vibrant fan energy, “It helps when all your fans are 14-year-old girls.” The jest was a playful nod to the Chiefs’ transformation from underdogs to top dogs.

Brady didn’t just stop at the decibels; he also touched on the Chiefs’ five-year hot streak, contrasting it with their previous fifty-year struggle. “And in honor of Tay Tay, let’s take a look at the Chiefs eras. Terrible for 50 years, good for 5. Shake it off,” declared Brady to a laughing crowd. The mention of Taylor Swift highlighted her influence on the Chiefs’ fanbase, with her relationship with player Travis Kelce bringing a surge of new fans to the fold.

Brady’s words can’t overshadow Taylor’s impact on the Chiefs’ legacy

The Kansas City Chiefs’ journey over the last half-century has been a tale of perseverance and transformation. From a record of 413-372-2 between 1974 and 2024 to clinching three Super Bowl victories in five years, including back-to-back wins in 2023 and 2024, the Chiefs have etched their name in NFL history. But it’s the recent ‘Swift effect’ that’s added a new chapter to their storied legacy.

Her presence at games has correlated with a notable uptick in the team’s performance, boasting a 75% win percentage with her in the stadium. The ‘Swift effect’ has seen the Chiefs’ average nearly 24 points per game, about four points better than without her. Coach Dave Merritt acknowledged Swift’s positive impact, noting an uplift in player Travis Kelce’s spirit attributed to her support during an episode of The Sports Shop with Reese and K-Mac.

“We been on a winning streak…” the Chiefs tweeted, considered to be a subtle nod to Swift’s lyrics “The Alchemy,” which is rumored to be about Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce encapsulating the team’s victorious run. Swift herself has been candid about her role. “I’m just there to support Travis,” she stated in an interview with Time magazine, emphasizing her supportive presence rather than a distraction.

Chiefs Coach Andy Reid has openly expressed his appreciation for Swift’s impact as well. “She’s got a great guy she’s dating right now, so I’m happy for both of them,” Reid shared to PEOPLE, acknowledging the positive vibes Swift brings to the games

Swift’s relationship with Kelce has not only brought a surge of new fans but also reshaped the NFL audience, with an estimated 2 million female viewers added since her regular appearances at Chiefs games. The economic boom, dubbed ‘Swiftonomics’, has seen local businesses thrive and the city’s profile elevated on a global stage. As the Chiefs continue their dominance, Swift’s star power remains a vibrant part of their winning formula.
