Fans likely remember when Jason wore a luchador mask at a Super Bowl LVIII afterparty he attended with brother Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. In one video widely circulated online, the 36-year-old danced to music while wearing a Chiefs T-shirt and the mask.
Hopefully, for the sake of Jason's fans, this won't be the last time they see him making surprise appearances in other sports arenas—with or without the luchador mask.
