Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> owner Clark Hunt has many things to celebrate these days.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In addition to building one of the most successful dynasties in NFL history, Hunt has witnessed an unprecedented growth in the Chiefs\u2019 fanbase, thanks to\u00a0Travis Kelce\u2019s<\/a> relationship with international pop star Taylor Swift.\u00a0<\/p>\n

During an appearance on\u00a0“The Pat McAfee Show”<\/a> on Friday, the Chiefs\u2019 CEO and chairman gave the relationship his stamp of approval, adding that Kansas City has seen more female fans over the last two seasons than arguably any other NFL team.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s been a whirlwind, I would say, for the organization over the last two years since Taylor literally stepped into our lives. She\u2019s done an amazing job, unintentionally, of increasing our female fanbase,” Clark said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We used to be about a 50-50 ratio, male-to-female fanbase, and now 57 percent of our fans are female, which I think is probably the highest in the\u00a0National Football League.<\/a> So there\u2019s absolutely been a Taylor Swift effect.”<\/p>\n

The Swift-effect has been an undeniable factor since the star tight end began his relationship with the singer and songwriter in 2023. She recently made an appearance on the Kelce brothers\u2019 “New Heights” podcast, which set the internet even further ablaze over their romance.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“First of all, let me just say how happy we are for their relationship,” Clark said on Friday. “They\u2019re an amazing couple and watching the two of them together is really special and that podcast, seeing them side-by-side talking about their relationship, was absolutely amazing.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“My daughters couldn\u2019t be happier that we have her as part of the Chiefs Kingdom now.”\u00a0<\/p>\n
