Patrick Mahomes’ Old High School Tweet About Taylor Swift Is Going Viral And Has Since Been Deleted (PIC)
A 10-year-old tweet from Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes on none other than Taylor Swift has resurfaced.
Swift is in a relationship with Mahomes’ close friend and teammate, Travis Kelce. The Grammy Award-winning singer attended most of the Chiefs’ games this season, including each of their postseason games and the Super Bowl 58 triumph over the San Francisco 49es.
Incredibly, Mahomes sent out an old tweet from Nov. 24, 2013 that reads “Why does Taylor win everything.” The tweet was actually deleted by Mahomes at some point, but some heads-up fans screenshotted the tweet before it could be gone forever
Little did Mahomes, Swifties and the entire NFL world know just how well that tweet would age more than a decade later. The 14-time Grammy Award winner is among the most accomplished and beloved singers of all-time, and then she got to witness her boyfriend become a three-time Super Bowl champion in person.
After a slow first half in the big game, Kelce was practically unstoppable in the second half and overtime against the San Francisco 49es. The future Hall of Famer finished the day with nine receptions for 93 yards, helping set up Mecole Hardman’s game-winning touchdown in the extra frame.
With the victory, the Chiefs also became the first team to win back-to-back Super Bowl championships since the 2003 and ’04 New England Patriots.
Gracie Hunt, the daughter of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, has made her feelings on Harison Butker clear following the kicker’s explosive speech at Benedictine College.
Butker has faced rife backlash for comments made in front of graduating students during a commencement ceremony at the college, where he encouraged women to lean into their vocations as wives, mothers, and homemakers.
“I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolic lies told to you,” he said in a now-viral video posted by the school’s YouTube account.
Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world, but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world. I can tell you that my beautiful wife Isabelle would be the first to say her life truly started when she started living her vocation as a wife and as a mother.”

The footage has garnered over 1 million views since being posted, and it’s been the cause of much discourse, with many people taking issue.
Gracie Hunt is not one of those people, however. Speaking to Fox News Digital, she drew on her own experience growing up with a mom who was always at home.
“Well, I can only speak from my own experience, which is I’ve had the most incredible mom who had the ability to stay home and be with us as kids growing up. And I understand that there are many women out there who can’t make that decision,” she saidBut for me and my life, I know it was really formative and in shaping me and my siblings into who we are.”
Asked whether she understood where his message was coming from, Gracie added, “For sure, and I really respect Harrison and his Christian faith and what he’s accomplished on and off the field.”
The NFL has distanced itself from Butker’s speech, insisting the league doesn’t share his views. The Chiefs have yet to address the comments.
