Jason Kelce will be part of the build-up to the Kansas City Chiefs' Week 4 meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers, with the former NFL player set to attend the New Heights tailgate at Arrowhead Stadium on Oct. 18.
The event is scheduled for Lot M at the Truman Sports Complex from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., with a fan meet and greet planned from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. Kickoff between the Chiefs and Chargers is set for 3:25 p.m., giving supporters a chance to make a day of it before the game.
Jason Kelce says he will be there
Kelce said he will attend the tailgate and that Travis Kelce will also be there, although only briefly. As he put it, he will be present, but Travis will be getting ready to play a football game, so he will not be at the tailgate itself.
That makes the event more than just another pregame gathering. For Chiefs Kingdom, it is a rare chance to connect around a New Heights event tied directly to a home game at Arrowhead Stadium, with Jason Kelce front and centre for the meet and greet.
A weekend tied to Arrowhead Stadium
The timing gives the tailgate a clear place in the weekend around the Chiefs and Chargers matchup. It is set before kickoff on Oct. 18, and it brings a familiar name into the stadium atmosphere as Kansas City prepares for another divisional game.
For fans, the key details are simple: Jason Kelce is scheduled to be there, the tailgate runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., and the meet and greet window is set for 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. The Chiefs and Chargers then take the field at 3:25 p.m., closing out a day built around Arrowhead Stadium.
