Taylor Swift has seemingly lived a million lives since her record-breaking Eras Tour kicked off in March 2023. Aside from becoming the highest-grossing tour of all time with $2 billion in ticket sales (!!!), Eras played a big role in how the Grammy winner met Travis Kelce. ICYMI, Travis made a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it for Tay at the Kansas City show at Arrowhead Stadium last year, shared the story on his podcast New Heights, and the rest was "So High School."

The pair is still going strong more than a year later—and Travis keeps telling stories about Tay on New Heights with his brother, Jason Kelce. As Taylor recently wrapped her tour in Vancouver, the pro athletes gave her and her crew major props for the production.

“Shout-out to Tay, and the unbelievable Eras Tour has finally come to an end,” Travis said during his latest episode. Jason asked how many shows Taylor performed over two years, to which Travis replied, “149 or 152. I forget which one it was. Somewhere in there. A fuck ton is how I sum it up.”

He also shared that it was “absolutely insane” that more than “10 million people” attended the show throughout the tour's run. “It’s pretty crazy,” he said as Jason added, “Well, shout-out to Tay.”

The Chiefs tight end also praised the musicians, dancers, and crew that played a part in putting on the nearly three-hour set. “Shout-out to everybody that was a part of that show. Obviously, it's her music, her tour and everything, but that was a full production, man. That thing was the best tour in the world because of a lot of people, but mostly because of Taylor.”

During her final show on December 8, Taylor took a moment to directly interact with her audience and thank fans for their support over the two-year tour.

“Making friends and bringing joy to each other, that is I think the lasting legacy of this tour, is the fact that you have created such a space of joy and togetherness and love,” she said during the Red portion of the show. “I couldn’t be more proud of you, honestly, that is all you. That is what people think about when they think about this tour, is how they felt out in the crowd with you.”

She continued, “I just want to say that, you’re why this is so special. And you supporting me for as long as you have is why I get to take these lovely walks down memory every single night because you cared about every era of my entire life that I've been making music, so thank you.”

Say it with me (through happy tears, of course): Long live the Eras Tour.
