Travis Kelce just pulled off the biggest reveal in the gaming world, and fans can’t stop buzzing about it.
As the NFL season approaches, Kelce is busy forging a path with his girlfriend of two years, pop icon Taylor Swift, but he still found the time to sprinkle some joy into the lives of millions of gamers. On Saturday, July 26, he surprised players as the special guest for the admin update of the mega-popular Roblox game “Grow a Garden.” Since launching in March 2025, this idle farming simulator has captivated over 6 million players with more than 20 million visits on the platform.
Every Saturday at 8 a.m. ET, the game features admin events, running for about an hour with exciting updates. These events often debut rare pets or seeds, and once in a while, players can snag exclusive pets only available during that particular update.

On this memorable Saturday, the admin event kicked off with a dramatic entrance—a giant football crashing into the game like a meteor. Soon after, Kelce made his grand debut, collaborating with Janzen “Jandel” Madsen, the game’s creator.

While in the game, Kelce hosted his own series of events. One included a touchdown celebration where he was seen hanging on goalposts, transforming the map into a lively football stadium. Another was a tornado event, where a frigid whirlwind swept through, mutating players’ fruits and adding to the chaotic fun.

Additionally, a brand-new seed, the Football Seed, was unveiled, promising to grow actual footballs in players’ gardens.
