The Broncos played Taylor Swift’s music in the stadium after upsetting the Chiefs

As CBS pointed out last week with an all-time great TV graphic, Travis Kelce and the Chiefs have played better this season with Taylor Swift in attendance. On Sunday in Denver, though, the Chiefs were left to their own devices and not much went right.

Even the audio folks at Empower Field at Mile High took a victory lap with their postgame music selection.

Following the Chiefs’ 24-9 loss to the Broncos, the stadium speakers blasted Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off” as the cheerleading squad had a choreographed routine prepared for the song. This was planned and ready to go ahead of time for a Broncos win.

The Chiefs don’t lose very often, but in those rare losses on the road, you can almost expect to hear Taylor Swift’s music being used against them ironically. If it didn’t happen in Denver, it was going to happen somewhere else. Pettiness is strong in the AFC West.

Of course, fans still had plenty of thoughts on the musical selection.

This was how Twitter reacted
