Travis Kelce Gave the Perfect Speech to America During Chiefs’ White House Visit
After Kelce and Mahomes, 28, presented the jersey to Biden, Kelce went straight to the presidential podium to speak a few words. Kelce was only able to say “So I’ve been waiting for this. . . .” into the microphone before he was hilariously pushed away by Mahomes.
“Sorry, sorry,” Mahomes apologized on behalf of Kelce, while the rest of the team — and the president — laughed off the moment.“Amid the chaos this team stepped up … This team is exceptional. As a country, we have to do more to stop the tragic shootings before they happen.
”The three-time Super Bowl champ further cemented his reputation as one of the country’s most lovable celebrities and was full of jokes during the Chiefs’ second consecutive White House visit on Friday. While it’s customary for the reigning Super Bowl winners to be honored at the White House, it’s nearly unheard of for an NFL player to take the podium and give an individual speech to the audience during the ceremony.
