Taylor Swift's Super Bowl debut a race against time as popstar faces 13-hour, 6,000-mile challenge to support Travis Kelce and Chiefs

AFC Championship - Kansas City Chiefs v Baltimore Ravens
Will Taylor Swift make it back for the Chiefs' Super Bowl?

The Kansas City Chiefs won against the Baltimore Ravens and made their Super Bowl trip official, which means that, for the final time this season, we will see Taylor Swift in the stands cheering for Travis Kelce.

Or will we?

Taylor Swift has a Japan concert the day before the Super Bowl, which could place her appearance at the big game in jeopardy. Flight experts are now discussing whether she can return to the U.S. before the start of the game.

Swift's last concert in Tokyo is scheduled for 6 pm local time (1 am PT) on Saturday. A flight from Tokyo to Vegas (approximately 6000 miles) is estimated to take around 13 hours. This means she could make it to Vegas in time for the Super Bowl, which kicks off on Sunday at 3.30 pm local time.

Even though it would take a significant effort, if she really wants to be there for the Chiefs, she'll find a way to make it through, even if she flies right after the concert.

Taylor Swift's jackets are becoming a huge deal in NFL circles

With a worldwide superstar like Taylor Swift entering the NFL world in 2023, it was clear that some of the coverage would shift to her orbit. Even NBC wanted to make this a thing. The singer traveled to MetLife Stadium to watch the Week 4 game against the New York Jets on Sunday Night Football, and NBC had a camera positioned to take shots of Swift, recording some of her reactions during the game.

As the singer watched the Chiefs' Week 7 game against the Los Angeles Chargers, she was wearing a bracelet with the number #87 and a heart next to it. The individual support worked out, as Kelce amassed 12 catches for 179 yards and a touchdown.

Even the clothes she wears have been the subject of attention. She was seen wearing a custom jacket jersey made by Kristin Juszczyk, the wife of San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk at a recent game. Out of nowhere, Kristin's Instagram numbers grew by 246%.
