If anyone ever dreamt about owning an actual basketball court chair, now is the time to do so. The only catch is that the chair is no longer in the stadium, but rather, the highest bidder can make it their own possession. So, what’s so special about the chair itself? As it turns out, Taylor Swift sat in it when she attended a Cleveland Cavaliers game with her fiancé, Travis Kelce.

Indeed, the chair Swift sat in during Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Cavaliers and the New York Knicks has been listed for auction. According to the listing on The Realist, the bidding opened at $100, and after 32 rounds, it was listed at $6,000.

The bidding will end on June 14, so any basketball fan who is also a Swiftie or a collector of high-profile goods should not let this chance pass.

As one of the most recognized and influential artists of her generation [Taylor Swift], the occupant of this chair has earned worldwide acclaim through a career defined by commercial success, critical recognition, and multiple Grammy Award victories. Her attendance reflects the cultural reach of the NBA Playoffs and the significance of the Eastern Conference Finals as one of the most visible events in sports.

The bidding description reads

Swift and Kelce broke the internet on May 23, when the celebrity pair walked through the doors at the Rocket Arena. Kelce, a Cleveland Heights native, is a star tight end with the Kansas City Chiefs and a three-time Super Bowl winner.

The Cavaliers lost to the Knicks that day. The Knicks emerged victorious in the seven-game series and qualified for their first NBA Championship since 1999. They are facing the San Antonio Spurs and are 2-0 in the series. A couple more wins will be enough to clinch a first title since 1973.

Taylor Swift is cutting ties with her friends because of Travis Kelce

However, Swift, who boasts a large social circle, is reportedly ending friendships left and right as she’s dating Kelce. Unlike her old days, the 36-year-old singer no longer hangs out with her friends. And when she does step out, Swift has Kelce by her side.

It sounds like a love song, but they genuinely love being alone together. They have plenty of friends, but most of the time they’d rather just spend time with each other. Taylor used to have a huge circle around her. Now her world is much smaller, and Travis is at the center of it.

The insider further revealed that Swift and Kelce prefer to spend time alone at their home.

They’re simply happiest together. Given the choice, they’d pick a quiet dinner for two over a celebrity-packed party almost every time. They already act like a married couple. They’ve become each other’s safe place.

Chiefs head coach’s straightforward answer when asked whether he’s attending Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid made a special appearance on the Stephen A. Smith show, where he revealed that he’s going to attend Kelce and Swift’s wedding.

I’ve cut back on the cheeseburgers a bit now that I’m older, I can get into the tuxedo, so there is a chance I’ll be there for sure.

Reid said

Coach Reid played a crucial role in bringing the pair together. The veteran had been an acquaintance of Swift’s father from his coaching days with the Philadelphia Eagles.
