After spending two Sundays calling NFL games in London as part of the NFL Network crew, Jason Kelce was back stateside for Week 6.
The former Philadelphia Eagles center who hosts a podcast with his brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, as part of a long list of media duties, spent Sunday, Oct. 18, tailgating with Chiefs fans in K.C.
The tailgate, which was a promotional event hosted by the brothers' "New Height" podcast, included free food and games. According to one social media user, the line to get in "stretched around the stadium." Take a look at the line in the photo below:
Got to the stadium at 11, and the line stretched around the stadium to get into @newheightshow came back at 1…still unmanageable.

Much love @JasonKelce drove three hours to see you before the game, but looking like a lineman “fat” chance. pic.twitter.com/yMr975PPOU
Jason Kelce announced on a recent episode of the podcast that he'd appear at the tailgate before the Chiefs host the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
"I will be there. Travis will also be there, but he will be getting ready to play a football game, so he will not be at the tailgate," Jason Kelce said.
The elder Kelce brother had some fun with fans after arriving.

One fan got what appeared to be a free beverage from Kelce after making a long basketball shot.

He also appeared to share one of his cans of Garage Beer with a fan. The Kelce brothers are owners of the beverage brand.
