The manager at the London bar where Travis and Jason Kelce shot their special New Heights episode this week revealed she was standing with a cutout of Taylor Swift when the Chiefs tight end arrived at the establishment.
The Kelce’s recorded the episode from Passyunk Avenue, a Philadelphia-inspired dive bar in the heart of central London, while in town for Swift’s Eras Tour shows at Wembley Stadium.
Speaking to PEOPLE, manager Jessi Riley detailed her first interaction with Travis.
‘We were having a ‘Swiftie Party’ later that day and it was extra funny because I was setting up the cardboard cut out of Taylor Swift as Travis walked in,’ said Riley.
‘I kind of said: ‘Sorry about the girlfriend, we’re having a Taylor Swift afterparty tonight.’ He said: ‘As am I.’ He was a bit early, so I wasn’t expecting him for another 45 minutes, so there I was standing with his girlfriend!’
Riley also revealed that the three-time Super Bowl champion ordered a beer and a cheesesteak as soon as he arrived.
The manager later detailed how Jason was warm from the moment they met.
‘[He] felt like a face I already knew,’ Riley shared. ‘He walked in and gave me a big bear hug around the shoulders and it just felt normal.’
Riley would appear on the episode while she served the Kelces traditional British cuisine – including a full English breakfast and afternoon tea.
Additionally, bar owner and Philadelphia native JP Geti raved about how Jason’s wife, Kylie, wanted to leave a souvenir after hosting them.
