Travis Kelce’s Hype Speech Ahead of Chiefs-Bills Game Raises Eyebrows

The Kansas City Chiefs face off against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Divisional round on Sunday, January 21, and tight end Travis Kelce is hyped.

Leading the Chiefs through the tunnel at Highmark Stadium, Kelce wanted to get his teammates amped with a pregame speech. However, Kelce’s choice of words immediately turned some heads in Buffalo.

“Where else would you rather be, baby?” Kelce yelled. “Where else would you rather be? Bout to turn this thing up!”

“Where else would you rather be!”

A video of the Chiefs captain’s comments quickly went viral on X, formerly known as Twitter. The question, “Where else would you rather be?” is from former Bills head coach, Marv Levy.

Levy, who led the Bills to four straight Super Bowl appearances, is nothing short of a legend in Buffalo. The Pro Football Hall of Fame remarked, “Prior to the start of every game, Marv would challenge his players with a rhetorical question. It became his trademark. The coach would ask aloud, “Gentlemen, where would you rather be than right here right now?”

While Levy was the head coach of the Chiefs for five seasons before landing in Buffalo, Bills fans didn’t appreciate Kelce using his words in their stadium. One fan posted, “Ugh… Kelce won’t be saying that after kickoff!!! Go Bills!!! Let’s Go!!!!” Another person wrote, “He better watch his mouth.” One man reacted, “Bills by 30 after seeing this.”
