adminThe 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs player said that he “almost won” $100,000 at the annual Louisville horse racing event over the weekend on the latest episode of his podcast, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, which was released on Wednesday, May 8.
“I was a nose away from winning that f—ing thing, dude,” Travis told his brother and co-host Jason Kelce as he shared that he put money on Number 11 to win and “a little bit” on Number 2 in the race at Churchill Downs.
“I was a beginner. I didn’t get too far into that,” Travis explained. “I just wanted to f—-ing put the money that I brought in there and throw it down on like one horse and just get f—-ing pumped if that thing was even close. And sure enough, coming around that corner, you see that thing … come up.”
“… I almost f—ing won a $100,000 off a Japanese horse in the Kentucky Derby,” Travis revealed. “Do you think America would have shamed me for that?” he added, jokingly. “I’m shaming you right now, dude,” added Jason, 36. “You bet on a Japanese horse? What the name of the horse?” “Forever Young,” Travis sang as he showed off his singing skills.
Travis was photographed attending the legendary race on Saturday, May 4, among a slew of other celebs, including Jimmy Fallon, who posted a video on Instagram of his encounter with Travis at the event.
The NFL star, who attended the race without his girlfriend Taylor Swift, looked sharp in a white pinstripe suit, navy fedora hat, and matching tie, complete with his characteristic diamond hoop earrings.
Travis’ stunning Derby outfit, which he disclosed was made by Patrick Christopher, was highlighted in an Instagram clip released by the official Kentucky Derby account, where he was shown clapping and leaping up and down excitedly as he watched the action on the race track.
