Maybe she’s late? No one knows for sure, but when Jim Nantz said on CBS’ coverage of the Vikings-Chiefs game in Minneapolis that Taylor Swift is not in attendance, it seemed to cement her status as a no-show for the big game.

It would’ve marked the third straight game she’d attended to watch Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, whom she is dating. Despite her not being at the game – at least to anyone’s knowledge – there was a swell of energy and speculation that she would be in attendance after a photographer from the Kansas City Journal tweeted a photo of a TV camera above a box suite that was labeled “Tay,” just as a camera was for her presence at the Chiefs-Bears game on Sept. 24.
“I spotted a similar sticker before she attended the Chiefs’ game against the Chicago Bears last month,” KC Star photographer Nick Wagner said.

Swift first appeared at a Chiefs game Sept. 24 and and Kansas City smoked the Chicago Bears 41-10 and Kelce had seven catches for 69 yards and a touchdown. Last week she was in New York to watch Kelce and the Chiefs play the Jets and Kelce finished with six catches for 60 yards as the Chiefs won 23-20.
