The Kelce brothers were hometown heroes during Tuesday night’s Cleveland Cavaliers game!
Travis, 34, and Jason, 36, were honored guests at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse during the NBA club’s Kelce Brothers bobblehead night. Attendees of the game against the Boston Celtics received a special bobblehead of the brothers donning their iconic Cleveland jerseys.
The Cavaliers uploaded a video featuring the brothers promoting the bobblehead dolls. Jason commented, “I look way better than I was expecting,” while Travis questioned the lack of a chain around his doll’s neck.
Before the game, the Cleveland Heights residents were honored. Jason got a framed Cavaliers jersey with his number 62 on it.

“Our family isn’t big. One aunt, one uncle, and no cousins. “Actually, it was my brother and I our entire lives,” Jason stated. “We did almost everything together — competed, fought, laughed, cried and learned from each other.”
He recalls “inventing games” with Travis, saying the two of them “imagined” themselves as NFL “star players” in the future. “We wоn cоuntless Super Bоwls in оur minԀs befоre ever leаving tҺe Һоuse,” he said.
Jason put it this way: “It made me stronger, tougher, smarter, and taught me the values of cooperation, loyalty, patience, and understanding.” regarding Travis’s assistance over the years.
