Taylor Swift could have plenty of new material for another album.
The Grammy Award-winning recording artist is rumored to be dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. The two superstars have been frontpage news since Swift was spotted attending the Chiefs' home game on Sunday alongside Kelce's mother Donna.

The Chiefs rolled to victory against the Chicago Bears that day as -12.5 point favorites, with Kelce finding the end zone once for his new lady.
Perhaps we all should have seen this coming back in 2019 when Swift sang, "We were a fresh page on the desk, filling in the blanks as we go, as if the street lights pointed in an Arrowhead leading us home."
So, how did the two meet? Kelce attended a Swift concert in July and then took to social media to sulk about not being able to actually meet the celebrated musician. He then did what any fearless bachelor would do and threw a Hail Mary that was caught at the goal line before breaking the plane, and breaking the Internet all in one "swift" motion.
There have been memes made, GIFs shared, and viral TikToks created, and it doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon. Just look at the effect Swift's presence has had on Kelce jersey sales:

This story has taken the world by storm, and now sportsbooks are offering odds on how the NFL's new "power couple" will fair in the foreseeable future. I break it all down for you below.
Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce betting markets
| Who Will Taylor Swift Be Photographed With at Kansas City vs Minnesota Game | Odds |
|---|---|
| Brittany Mahomes | -800 |
| Haim Sisters | +150 |
| Selena Gomez | +150 |
| Josh Duhamel | +200 |
| Ryan Reynolds | +200 |
| Sophie Turner | +200 |
| Blake Lively | +250 |
| Billie Eilish | +300 |
Odds as of October 4, 2023.
It's hard to find a guest list for which celebrities are going to be attending a specific game, but if Taylor Swift's entourage from last week is any indication, we are in store for more celebrity sightings.
Off the top, Brittany Mahomes is surely going to poke her head around Swift's suite. I mean, the cameras will be rolling and Mrs. Mahomes has not been one to shy away from acting up on camera at her hubby's football games.
The Haim sisters are a good bet due to their close ties with Swift, but I'm going back to old reliable and taking Sophie Turner at +200.
She was there on Sunday night in New York and amid her divorce from Joe Jonas, why not surround yourself with friends at a fun sporting event?
My best bet: Sophie Turner (+200)

For all you Swifties out there who are now on the Kansas City Chiefs train and helping boost the price of tickets and merchandise, let me explain what these odds mean along with the implied probability of these events happening.
Let's look at the top event of "Taylor Swift pictured with Brittany Mahomes at the Minnesota game" at -800 odds. This means you'd have to risk $800 to win $100. The implied probability of this happening checks in at 88.89%. This means there's a very good chance Swift attends another game, but you'd have to risk a hefty amount to win $100.
Conversely, Let's say you believe Swift will be pitcured with Sophie Turner. If you wager $100 and you're right, you will receive $300. The implied odds of this happening are 25%.

Will Taylor and Travis announce a pregnancy by end of 2023
| Yes | No |
|---|---|
| +1,200 | -7,500 |
This is a lot of juice to lay on the No, but I can't envision a scenario where a pregnancy is announced this year.
The two have been together for approximately 89 minutes and with Kelce in the middle of a football season and Swift set to go back on tour for the latter part of her Eras Tour, it just doesn't make sense.
Please refrain from betting this, but if you're inclined, take NO.
Will Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Announce Engagement in 2023
| Yes | No |
|---|---|
| +800 | -2,500 |
I echo my statement from above. The two have been an item for approximately 89 minutes so an engagement should be out of the question.
However, celebrities are a different kind of people and we've seen plenty of shotgun weddings to give us hope that the Yes will hit at +800.
I don't see it happening, but if it does, I wouldn't be shocked.
