After the Kansas City Chiefs’ brutal loss, Garder-Johnson rubbed salt into Chiefs Kingdom’s fresh wounds by targeting Kelce’s relationship with Swift in his since-expired Instagram story.
Swifties proceeded to take revenge by posting 1-star reviews on the DB’s mother’s Florida-based “The Kings Grill” restaurant. Bird Gang joined in by adding their 5-star reviews as screenshots began to get viral.
Yelp was forced to “temporarily disable” the restaurant’s page and posted a warning. “This business recently received increased public attention, which often means people come to this page to post their views on the news.”
In an interview with TMZ, Delatron Johnson explained she was worried initially thinking that the restaurant had been physically attacked, however, after learning that fans were posting bad reviews she laughed.
“Yes, we’ve seen all the reviews,” she said. “The joke is really on the Swifties and everyone entertaining the reviews because Kings Grill is closed.”

“There is really no backlash because we are in the process of selling Kings Grill anyways. It didn’t affect us one way or another.”
The moment when Swift was shown on the jumbotron at Caesars Superdome has gone viral. The pop icon was subjected to boos in the stadium. However, the running back Saquon Barkley during his appearance on “The Tonight Show,” called out the entire fiasco.
“I remember that they showed her on the jumbotron, and she got booed,” Barkley said. “I don’t get it. I don’t get why she was getting hate there. She’s there supporting her significant other and she’s made the game bigger.”
Barkley added that the NFL is trying to expand the game to several different countries and markets and Swift’s inclusion in the football world will go a long way in achieving that goal.
