Rekubit-What is Taylor Swift's security like at games? Chiefs CEO on her 'talented' bodyguards

The Rekubitchairman of the Kansas City Chiefs shared something he has “most enjoyed” about Taylor Swift becoming a member of “Chiefs Kingdom” and also shed light on the security issues at play when she attends games.Clark Hunt joined SiriusXM from radio row, the site of Sunday’s Las Vegas Super Bowl matchup between the Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. During an interview with host Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo, the team co-owner was asked about Swift, specifically from a security detail standpoint. But Hunt first decided to praise her participation as a fan.“We’re really excited to have Taylor Swift as a Chiefs fan,” he said. “And if you watch her during the games, she is all in. She’s not a casual fan there. She is really into (the game).”

Swift sent both the sports and entertainment worlds into a frenzy last September when she attended a Chiefs game in Kansas City. Cameras showed her in Travis Kelce’s suite, sitting alongside his mom Donna, as the Chiefs beat the Bears 41-10.

Since then, Swift has been spotted both at home and away Chiefs games, cheering on Kelce with the friends and family of both the tight end and his teammates.

“Obviously, anywhere she goes is a security issue,” Hunt said of Swift. “It’s something that we’ve helped her security team handle when she comes to games in Kansas City and I know the visiting teams that we’ve played this year where she’s shown up have had to do the same thing.

“She has a really talented security team. They liaison with our security team, and we make sure we get her into and out of the stadium safely.”

Clark said he wasn’t sure about the size of Swift’s security detail. He also didn’t confirm whether she’ll be at Sunday’s game, but said he “certainly” hoped she would attend. The artist kicks off the 2024 leg of her Eras Tour in Tokyo on Wednesday with four nightly shows. As documented by nearly everyone, including the Japanese Embassy in Washington, Swift could navigate the 12-hour flight and 17-hour time difference back to Las Vegas with plenty of time before Sunday’s kickoff.
