Swifties Are Trolling Football Fans In A Hilarious New TikTok Trend

TikTokers are teasing the football fans in their life by saying Swift put Kelce "on the map."

Call it the result of a parasocial relationship, but the Swifties are having a field day with the budding romance between Taylor Swift and football star Travis Kelce. And not only are they teaching each other the rules of the game—they've also created a new trend on TikTok where they pretend the Grammy-winning artist put football (and Kelce) "on the map."

"Nobody knew who he was until she showed up at the game for him the other day and now that's all anyone can talk about. She's really helping put him on the map," user @kellylorraine_ told her husband.

The TikToker, who frequently posts couples content, raked in four million views with her husband's stunned reaction.

The trend is all in good fun, especially because Kelce is considered to be one of the greatest tight ends in the history of the sport with a future spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It's kind of like he's the Taylor Swift of football—anyone who doesn't recognize him is clearly a novice.

"I love how offended he was on behalf of Travis Kelce," the video's top comment reads.

The Swiftie fan community is quick to lash out when they sense their queen needs defending, but it appears Kelce's fans are just as sensitive.

Most of the receivers of this "on the map" trend take the bait and end up fiercely defending his honor.

"The man who helped the Chiefs get two Super Bowl rings is not a nobody. You obviously don't watch the NFL or the Super Bowl," @alexiaeofficial's son said in her video with 1.5 million views.

"Swifties are dedicated but these men will FIGHT for Travis Kelce," one comment reads.

"I love his fans. They're not Swifties but they go hard for theirs," another comment reads. Indeed, supporters have gone hard for singer's past relationships, and it looks like Kelce fans are no different.
