A lifelong Taylor Swift fan claims that the pop star’s stylist purchased her vintage Kansas City Chiefs bomber jacket online, which was later worn by Swift herself during Monday night’s match-up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
“Y’all, Taylor Swift was wearing my old jacket at the Chiefs game tonight,” said a TikTok user named Court in a post on Tuesday, expressing her surprise and excitement.
Swift arrived at Arrowhead Stadium for the game wearing a black leather varsity jacket adorned with red and yellow accents on the sleeves. The bomber featured several prominent arrowhead logos and had the word “Chiefs” emblazoned across the back. The moment photos of Swift at the game surfaced online, they quickly went viral, and fans took notice of her unique style.
Court’s mother was one of the first to recognize something familiar about the jacket. After seeing the photos, she mentioned how “familiar” it looked, which prompted them to do a little investigating.
“And so I was like, ‘Did we sell that on eBay?’” Court recalled in her TikTok. “I checked with my dad and he said, ‘Yeah, isn’t that the one we shipped out to California?’” Initially doubtful, Court decided to dig through their eBay history, eventually confirming that the jacket in question had indeed been sold to a buyer in Los Angeles.
Although Taylor Swift herself didn’t make the purchase, Court claimed that the buyer was none other than Swift’s stylist, Joseph Cassell Falconer. She pointed out that this name appeared on the order form.

“I’m a longtime Swiftie—I’m talking like almost 20 years—and even I didn’t know the name of her stylist. But that’s who bought the jacket,” Court shared in her TikTok video, still in disbelief. She included a screenshot of the eBay listing, which showed a near-identical jacket to the one Swift wore to the game. Though she blurred out the buyer’s name for privacy, the jacket was listed for $169.
After comparing photos of Swift’s jacket to the one she had sold, Court noticed several minor details that confirmed it was the same one.
“We checked and double-checked, and not only is it the exact same jacket, but in the pictures we had listed on eBay, you can see a little bend in the leather, and you can see that exact same bend in the picture of her wearing it,” she explained. “I can’t make this up.”
Court is currently searching for old photos of herself wearing the coat to further verify the connection, but in the meantime, she couldn’t help but share her excitement with her followers.
“I am freaking out,” she said. “So thank you to Taylor’s stylist for buying the jacket. As a lifelong Chiefs fan and a ‘Super Swiftie,’ this is the coolest thing to ever happen to me!”
Swift has been known for her fondness for vintage Chiefs gear, often opting for retro pieces that add a personal and nostalgic touch to her game-day outfits. Many of her items have been sourced from local Kansas City vintage shops, known for carrying unique Chiefs apparel that fits Swift’s throwback style.
She has frequently worn items from stores like Westside Storey, which boasts a range of vintage-style jackets and apparel. From her ’90s-era Chiefs crewneck to oversized T-shirt dresses, Swift has shown an affinity for mixing vintage finds with her personal style.
On Monday night, Swift took her curated game-day look to the next level, pairing the vintage Chiefs bomber jacket with luxury designer accessories.
The 14-time Grammy winner sported knee-high Christian Louboutin cowboy boots (priced at $2,195), a stunning vintage Chanel necklace, and a Dior Saddle bag ($4,400), adding a blend of high-end flair to her otherwise classic and sporty outfit.
Swift attended the game alongside her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s parents, her own mother Andrea, her brother Austin, and her friend Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. The group enj
oyed the thrilling Monday night matchup, which saw the Chiefs take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in an intense battle that ended in a game-winning overtime touchdown for Kansas City.
Throughout the night, Swift and Brittany Mahomes were seen cheering enthusiastically and going through a range of emotions—from the nerves of seeing Patrick Mahomes briefly injured to the sheer joy of witnessing the overtime victory.
The two have been building a friendship over the course of the season, and their shared moments of excitement in the suite only added to the evening’s highlights.
For Court, seeing her old jacket being worn by Taylor Swift is a story she’ll treasure forever.
It’s not every day that a piece of your own closet ends up in the hands of one of the world’s biggest pop stars, and for this lifelong Swiftie, the connection to her idol has made this moment even more special.
