Cleveland pride takes center stage as rapper Machine Gun Kelly extends a playful yet tempting offer to NFL tight end Travis Kelce. In a recent episode of the New Heights podcast, the Houston rapstar proposed a jaw-dropping deal, offering Kelce $500,000 and more to leave the Kansas City Chiefs and don the colors of the Cleveland Browns.
In a candid conversation on the podcast, Machine Gun Kelly, also known as MGK, seized the opportunity to express his desire for Kelce to return to their shared hometown. “I’m sure you get asked this question behind closed doors a lot, but I would be remiss if, due to the nature of our friendship and just as a Clevelander, I did not insert this question personally,” MGK explained.
The rapper promised Kelce a cool $500,000 in cash upon arrival, allowing him the freedom to spend it on shopping or any other personal endeavors. To sweeten the deal further, MGK pledged to match the same amount as a charitable donation to both of their high schools—Shaker Heights and Cleveland Heights. As an additional perk, daily breakfast and coffee deliveries from MGK’s restaurant were also on the table for Kelce if he agreed to switch teams.
The Laughter and Reflection:
The unexpected proposition drew bursts of laughter from the podcast hosts, and Kelce, clearly caught off guard, reminisced about the original dream of returning home. “You know that was the original dream, dawg,” he exclaimed, emphasizing the sentimental connection to Cleveland.
Kelce’s Response:
Acknowledging the intrigue of the offer, Kelce, a proud Ohio native, hinted at the positive situation he currently enjoys in Kansas City. “You know how much we love the East side of Cleveland, the Heights,” he shared. “I’m not gonna lie, the situation’s pretty good in Kansas City.” However, he assured everyone that, while no major decisions were imminent, MGK’s offer was indeed real and on the table.
Conclusion:
Machine Gun Kelly’s lighthearted and generous offer to Travis Kelce adds a touch of humor and hometown pride to the sports world. As Clevelanders eagerly await Kelce’s decision, the unexpected proposal showcases the strong bonds that sports and friendship can create, transcending team rivalries and geographical distances. The saga of whether Kelce will trade his Chiefs jersey for Browns colors continues, leaving fans and fellow Clevelanders on the edge of their seats.
