The pop singer had to travel across the globe (and through time, in a sense) to make the game. She watched Travis Kelce and Kansas City beat the San Francisco 49ers in overtime.
The Kansas City Chiefs won their third Super Bowl title in the last five seasons by beating the San Francisco 49ers in overtime, 25-22, on Sunday. While some N.F.L. players go their entire career without winning a championship, one of Kansas City’s newcomers came away a winner in their 13th game.
Taylor Swift, who has been dating Travis Kelce, Kansas City’s star tight end, changed the N.F.L. conversation all season, attracting a new audience for the league and inspiring strong emotions (both positive and negative) among fans. And, as expected, she was at the stadium and cheering on Mr. Kelce and the Chiefs in their come-from-behind win.
After the game, Ms. Swift went down to the field to celebrate with Donna Kelce and the rest of Kansas City’s friends and family.

Ms. Swift, as you may have heard, is good at keeping secrets. Her plans, beyond concert dates, are rarely announced in advance. That has led some to devise their own methods for figuring out what she’s up to. Ahead of a Kansas City game in October, for example, an NBC producer said he had a spotter plane searching the area around MetLife Stadium for police escorts in hopes of alerting the television crew if she showed up (she did).
