As the Carolina Panthers prepare to take on the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday, fans in North Carolina have found themselves wondering whether Taylor Swift will be in attendance. The global superstar, often seen supporting her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, has become as much a headline at NFL games as the players themselves.

Swift‘s appearances have been a hot topic among her fans, affectionately dubbed “Swifties,” who are eager for any chance to see her outside the concert stage. Despite the enthusiasm, it seems unlikely that Swift will show up at Bank of America Stadium.

This season, her appearances have been limited to Kansas City’s home games, skipping high-profile matchups like last week’s road game against Buffalo.

Why Panthers fans should wish Swift does not attend the game?

For Panthers fans, however, there may be an odd sense of relief in Swift‘s absence. Since she began attending Chiefs games last season, the team has thrived, going 14-3 when she’s in the stands.

That streak includes a remarkable nine consecutive wins dating back to late 2023, making her presence seem almost like a good-luck charm for Kansas City.

Her absence last week coincided with the Chiefs’ loss to Buffalo, leaving some wondering if her presence carries more than just emotional support.

As of now, the Chiefs are heavily favored by oddsmakers, boasting a 10.5-point advantage according to DraftKings Sportsbook. But Panthers fans might hold onto the hope that the Chiefs‘ first loss of the season, which happened without Swift in attendance, signals a potential crack in their armor.

According to David Newton de ESPN, Swift will not make her debut at Bank of America Stadium this weekend.
