Travis Kelce has seen what other fan bases have done and the result of it not working out, so he had a stern message for his fan abse.
Before this year’s NFC Championship game, someone placed a 49ers jersey on Philadelphia’s iconic “Rocky” statue. History has not been kind to every fan base that has done that.
Ahead of this year’s Super Bowl matchup, Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce is warning all Chiefs fans to stay away from the Philly landmark.
“Chiefs, do not touch the (expletive) Rocky memorial,” Travis Kelce said on the New Heights podcast. “Do not do that and definitely don’t put a No. 87 on it.”
Kelce gave this warning on his podcast with his brother, Eagles star center Jason Kelce.
Jason added that he thinks it is actually a Philly fan who’s responsible for the recent statue defacing.

“I’m gonna be honest, I think somebody from Philadelphia is doing this now,” he said. “I don’t think this is an opposing team thing at this point. There’s no way opposing teams continue to do this. I’m convinced there is a Philadelphia fan who is putting these shirts on the Rocky statue just to get everyone fired up and it’s working tremendously. So keep doing it. I guarantee it. There’s no way, because it’s happened every single game. The (New York) Giants did it. The 49ers did it. There will probably be a (Kansas City) Chiefs jersey on it this week.”
The Eagles and Chiefs will clash in this year’s Super Bowl, pitting the two brothers against each other.
Chiefs fans just better stay away from Rocky.
