In a scene from the Amazon Prime Video documentary Kelce — which follows the Philadelphia Eagles center, 35, through the 2022-2023 season as he makes family and career decisions — the then-pregnant mom, 31, shared her disbelief at how much it would cost to bring their toddler daughters to the big game.

"Alright, I'm doing the maximum amount of tickets that you can purchase, because that's the amount we were counting for," she says, before realizing the tickets would cost $50,000. "This is why I don't go on the calculator on my phone."

"It's a lot of money," Jason acknowledges, while watching  Elliotte, 2, and Wyatt, 3, play. "We're paying almost $4,000 for a f---ing kid who is not going to sit in a seat to watch her dad play in a game. That's bananas," she says.

Jason confirms, "It is," before asking Wyatt if she wanted to go to the Super Bowl. At first, the toddler says no, but then points to the baby she's pushing in her toy carriage. "My baby wants to go to the Super Bowl, too," she says, to which they laugh.

Players not getting free tickets is actually insane when you think about it and something many fans do not realize. It is a lot harder for players to get tickets for family and friends than you would think. When you are growing up, you think like these professional athletes can do whatever the fuck they want when it comes to getting tickets to their own games. Then I became friends with some of them (humble brag) and found out that they have to pay out the ass for okay seats. I get it. It's the price you pay for making millions of dollars because one time I asked Evan Longoria for tickets and I got a venmo requests from him. To say the least I was shocked to see that, but I paid it in two seconds. 

Still, paying $50k for your pregnant wife and kids is crazy. Like can pro teams or leagues sometimes let things slide a bit. They don't need to have the best tickets in the world. But for them to spend $50k to watch a game their husband/dad is playing in sounds like a bit much and it has to hurt paying that bill after a loss, no matter how much money you have. I would lose my fucking mind over that.

I also think that the Kelce brothers' podcast was a plant by the NFL. Who starts a podcast with two brothers and the 1st year they are both in the Super Bowl and now their Mom is slinging ads for Kind Bar? I think something is fishy but they clearly aren't getting hooked up with free tickets for their hard work.
