It's a big day for Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce as he turns 36, but the birthday attention is coming from an unexpected place. Swifties, the dedicated fanbase of pop superstar Taylor Swift, have taken over the comments section of a Chiefs TikTok video, showering Kelce with playful and cheeky birthday wishes.
The Chiefs released a 32-second clip featuring "The Archer" – a nod to Kelce's signature move – to mark the occasion. While the video was meant to be a straightforward birthday hype post, the fans had other plans. They cheekily dubbed Kelce "Mr. Wood," referencing Taylor Swift's vivid lyrics about their romance.
Comments from Swifties were anything but shy. One fan admitted they can no longer look at Travis without blushing, while another took the opportunity to celebrate what they humorously called "the biggest tree in the forest." The playful banter stems from Taylor's song "Wood," where she paints a vivid picture of her relationship with Kelce.
“Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me and opened my eyes / Redwood tree, it ain't hard to see / His love was the key that opened my thighs.”
The song's bold and metaphor-laden lyrics caught fans by surprise despite Taylor’s reputation for personal storytelling. One enthusiastic Swiftie highlighted how the lines showcase Taylor’s poetic flair. The flood of comments on TikTok shows just how much these lyrics have captured the imagination of her fans, intertwining pop culture with sports in a uniquely entertaining way.
