Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce recently celebrated a major milestone in a unique way by chugging a beer during his college graduation ceremony at the University of Cincinnati. Kelce, who had attended the university alongside his brother Jason Kelce for his undergrad, had never participated in graduation ceremonies until now.
The Kelce brothers, who are both professional football players, hosted their “New Heights” podcast event at Fifth Third Arena while donning cap and gowns to mark the occasion. Travis Kelce completed his remaining credit hours for an interdisciplinary studies degree this year, while Jason Kelce received a degree in marketing.
During the ceremony, University of Cincinnati President Dr. Neville Pinto presented the diplomas to the brothers as their parents proudly watched from the audience. Photos from the event were shared on Instagram by the Bearcats with the caption “A surprise commencement we’ll never forget.”
Travis and Jason Kelce had played football together during their time at the University of Cincinnati, making this graduation ceremony even more special for the close-knit family. With his degree in hand, Travis Kelce can now enjoy the off-season before joining his girlfriend Taylor Swift on her “Eras Tour” in Europe, while Jason Kelce can continue his life in retirement after leaving the NFL last month.
The Kelce brothers’ graduation ceremony was a heartwarming moment for their fans and followers, who were thrilled to see the duo celebrate their academic achievements in style.
