Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce have finally graduated. Even though the brothers left the University of Cincinnati back in the early 2010s, they never managed to attend the ceremony or receive their mementos.
A video of the festivities on Thursday night showed UC’s president, Dr. Neville Pinto, wearing graduation robes. He donned a cap and gown as the Kelce siblings hosted their ‘New Heights‘ podcast event at the Fifth Third Arena.
At the end of the live broadcast, Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce walked onto the stage. The crowd was hyped for the moment as the younger Kelce brought out a can of beer and chugged it in one go. After finishing it, he smashed the can on the floor like WWE personality Stone Cold, Steve Austin.
Travis then leaned forward and hugged Dr. Pinto, who presented the Kansas City Chiefs All-Pro tight end with his diploma. He grabbed the microphone from the podium and did his usual pleasantries.
You've got to fight for your right to party!Travis Kelce shouted
Their parents, father Ed Kelce and mother Donna Kelce, both did not miss the special occasion. Later, the Cincinnati Bearcats, for whom the brothers played college football, also shared a congratulatory message.
A surprise commencement we’ll never forget. Congratulations to Travis and Jason on [finally] picking up those diplomas!Cincinnati Bearcats wrote on X (formerly Twitter)
Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce expressed gratitude towards UC
Despite being brothers who played at the highest level of football, they took different routes while studying in college. Travis Kelce studied at the University of Cincinnati from 2008 until 2012. He only completed the remaining credit hours in 2022 to get his diploma.
Jason Kelce, on the other hand, was much more of a student. The former Philadelphia Eagles center majored in marketing, per the UC website.
Cincinnati! We love you guys. Don’t forget to get your degrees on the way out.Travis shouted at the end of the ceremony
During the broadcast, UC alumni and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and his teammate Orlando Brown Jr. joined the Kelce brothers. The Bengals pair spoke about their time at the college as Jason’s wife, Kylie Kelce, watched from the crowd.
Unfortunately, for the Swifties, their beloved Taylor Swift, girlfriend of Travis Kelce, wasn’t present on the night. She is currently in between her tours. The star couple were recently seen hanging out together in LA as Kelce prepares to host the rebooted version of ‘Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader?‘
