Swift and Kelce Make First Post-Engagement Appearance at Arrowhead as Nebraska Deletes Troll Post

Nebraska’s athletic account deleted a mocking post after fans protested, underscoring the couple’s outsized cultural footprint.

Overview

  • Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce attended the Cincinnati–Nebraska game at Arrowhead Stadium on Aug. 28 in their first public outing since announcing their engagement.
  • They watched from a suite with Jason Kelce and Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, with photographers capturing Swift’s new ring on display.
  • Nebraska’s accounts posted a photoshopped version of the couple’s engagement photo with the Herbie Husker mascot and the caption “Change of plans,” then removed it following backlash.
  • Multiple outlets report jeweler Kindred Lubeck worked on Swift’s Old Mine–cut ring, though independent estimates of size and value vary widely and remain unconfirmed.
