Taylor Swift, known for her music, showcased her baking skills as Bernie Kosar, a former NFL player, relished her handmade cinnamon rolls. Kosar, adhering to a vegan diet, made an exception for Swift's rolls and praised her baking prowess. He recounted the encounter during a pre-game meal at Travis Kelce's house, where Swift kindly shared her homemade treats.
The University of Miami icon, Kosar, reminisced about meeting Swift before a game at Kelce's home in October. Despite his dietary restrictions, he couldn't resist trying Swift's cinnamon rolls, describing them as delightful. Kosar, who holds a special place in the hearts of Kelces due to his football legacy and Cleveland roots, expressed admiration for Swift's down-to-earth nature.
Swift proudly showcased her baking expertise on social media in May 2020, emphasizing her passion for baking. Kosar, in awe of Swift's genuine demeanor, praised her as an exemplary role model, especially for younger audiences.
Kosar's connection to the Kelces stems from his football career, as he was an admired figure during his tenure with the Cleveland Browns. Originating from the same Cleveland Heights area as the Kelces, Kosar's influence extended to the Kelce brothers, who admired him enough to dress up as him during Halloween in their childhood.
The episode where Kosar tasted Swift's cinnamon rolls occurred on October 22 before the Chiefs faced the Los Angeles Chargers. Swift has been a regular attendee at Chiefs' games, most recently witnessing their triumph against the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium. Accompanying her were her father, Scott, close friends Alana Haim and Ashley Avignone, and Brittany Mahomes, there to support her husband, quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
In an interview for Time's Person of the Year issue, Swift humorously expressed her newfound appreciation for football, referencing her experiences attending games. Kosar, akin to Swift's cinnamon rolls, found himself relating to the charm of the sport.
