Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was spotted at Globe Life Field for Game 1 of the World Series between the Texas Rangers and the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday night.

Kelce was shown on the jumbotron dancing to Swift’s hit song “Shake it Off,” before the top of the eighth inning to the delight of the Globe Life Field crowd.

The Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs have gotten even more popular since Swift began showing up for Chiefs games in September. StubHub reported a nearly three-fold increase in Chiefs’ ticket sales and ticket searches after Swift attended KC’s Sept. 24 game against the Chicago Bears, according to the Kansas City Star.

Kelce, already a star of soup and insurance commercials, is more popular than ever since he started dating the superstar. Sales of his jersey were up 400% after Swift’s appearance at the Bears game.

Swift just released “1989 (Taylor’s Version)“ on Friday, a re-recorded version of her 2014 album.

She played three sold-out shows at AT&T Stadium from March 31-April 2.

Other celebrities spotted at Game 1:

Cy Young Award winner and 2009 ALCS MVP CC Sabathia was also in attendance. Sabathia won the 2009 World Series with the New York Yankees and made six all-star teams over his 19-year career.

Popular YouTube trick comedy group Dude Perfect also made an appearance taking part in the pregame festivities.
