Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce has revealed being threatened by members of the Secret Service during his most recent visit to the White House.
Kelce literally had to be hauled off the presidential podium by teammate Patrick Mahomes after going rogue and sneaking up to it after the Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles at the Super Bowl in 2023.
This time around, the All-Pro tight end was invited by President Joe Biden, so he finally got to say his piece.
“They told me if I came up here I’d get tased,” he said of the Secret Service.
Travis Kelce Wasn’t Playing
It did appear that he was joking at the time. However, speaking on his ‘New Heights’ podcast this week, he revealed he was dead serious.

“That’s real. The Secret Service that’s all over the White House, they weren’t too happy with me on my second time visiting,” he said.
“When I walked in, we had about four or five Secret Service members come up to me and tell me, ‘You know if you go up to that podium, we’re authorized to taze you. It is actually an order for us to tase you.’
“That’s all that was going through my head. I had no idea that President Biden was going to ask me to come up and let me have my moment…I felt a taser aimed at me when I was up there the whole time.”
Now that this is out there, we’d bet that some fans, probably even some Chiefs supporters, would have loved to see Travis Kelce get tased by the Secret Service just for the laughs.
