The on-air gaffe that Tony Romo made during the Chiefs game against the Buffalo Bills, in which he mistook Taylor Swift for Travis Kelce’s girlfriend rather than his wife, has generated a lot of buzz on the internet.
Over the course of the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills that took place on Sunday night, the commentator Tony Romo made an error and referred to Taylor Swift as Travis Kelce’s “wife” rather than his girlfriend.
Kelce made a fantastic grab in the second quarter at Arrowhead Stadium, which is when the slide occurred. Romo, who was caught up in the enthusiasm, made the announcement, “As you see Kelce’s wife, Taylor Swift, in the audience…” He then quickly corrected himself with a nervous giggle and said, “I’m sorry, girlfriend.”
Swift had only recently made public the fact that she is in a relationship with the Chiefs tight end. Swift was recently honored as the Person of the Year by TIME International. Swift revealed her feelings on her relationship with her boyfriend in an interview for the cover story of TIME magazine. She said, “We actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for because it allowed us to get to know each other before we started dating.” We had already turned into a couple by the time I went to that very first game. In response to the public’s conjecture regarding their first date, she provided the following clarification: “I believe that some people believe that they observed our first date at that game’s game? There is no way that we could ever be so insane as to forcefully initiate a first date.
Adding to the excitement of the evening was Taylor Swift’s attendance at the game, where she was wearing a vintage Chiefs sweatshirt and was surrounded by pals in a suite. Her friendship with Kelce has been a topic of intrigue for fans as well as the media, and Romo’s error has only served to stoke the flames of this fascination. Following the incident, the hashtag “Tony Romo” became quite popular on X (which was formerly known as Twitter). Fans and followers responded with a variety of responses, ranging from support for the pair to amusement when they saw the hashtag.
Fans’ responses to the strange occurrence that occurred during the broadcast
“They need to play lavender haze at half time,” a fan said, referring to a song from Taylor Swift’s album “Midnights,” in which she sings about the pressure to be married. The lyrics of the song, which are as follows: “All they keep asking me is if I’m gonna be your bride,” encapsulate the mood of the night.
Swifties shared amusing GIFs and speculated on the reactions of news headline writers and Swift’s publicist as a result of the mix-up, which led to a rush of activity on the internet.
