Many people these days feel as if they have the right to say whatever is on their mind but sometimes, they take things too far. It seems as if somebody did this, but they did it to the wrong person.
Jason Kelce is a former football star but when a Penn State football fan started talking to him about his brother and using a homophobic slur, it was more than he could take. Those statements led to the destruction of the fan’s phone.
It happened on Saturday, November 2 and the videos were rolling, so they were later shared on X. Jason is retired from the Philadelphia Eagles and he was outside of Beaver Stadium in State College, Pennsylvania. It was during the game between Ohio State and Penn State.
Jason was surrounded by football fans, and he was busy walking through the crowd. Someone in the crowd at the time raised his fist, calling for a fist bump but then another man nearby used the homophobic slur towards his brother, Travis Kelce.
To say things got tense is an understatement.
“Kelce how does it feel that your brother is a f****t for dating Taylor Swift?”
Jason Kelce proceeded to slam this kids phone on the ground.

The man asked: “Hey, Kelce. How does it feel your brother’s a f—– dating Taylor Swift?” He was doing so to refer to Travis, who has been dating Taylor Swift since 2023.
The man was then recorded Jason, and just continued to harass him but eventually, the retired NFL player had enough. He turned around, grabbed the phone out of his hand and smashed it.
The kid following and berating Jason Kelce deserved to have his phone smashed.
He went looking for trouble and intentionally wanted to illicit a reaction. F that guy!

The video was shown on social media from a number of different angles. In one, he seemed to be walking away with the phone, and in another, the man was demanding that he get the phone back.
Things do get interesting times!
