NFL Star Travis Kelce’s Big Move Tied to Cedar Point

Growing up in Michigan, one of the ultimate things you could do during the summer was take a trip down to Sandusky, Ohio, and spend a day at Cedar Point.

I remember the first time that I visited. I was in high school, and the second that we walked in and saw The Raptor, I knew that I was in for an amazing day.

It turns out that Kansas City Chiefs' tight end (and Taylor Swift's fiancé) Travis Kelce also has fond memories of summer days at 'America's Rockin Roller Coast', so much so that he has partnered up with the investment firm JANA Partners to invest in Six Flags Entertainment (Cedar Point's parent company).

Travis Kelce Invests in Cedar Point

Kelce announced the news on Instagram on October 22, saying

Couldn’t pass up the opportunity to continue the tradition and make Cedar Point and Six Flags even more special for the next generation of families! Excited to partner with JANA Partners as an investor in Six Flags. So crazy to even imagine this is real, but you gotta love it when life comes full circle.

He accompanied the announcement with a photo and two videos featuring him and his brother, former Philadelphia Eagle Jason Kelce, sharing memories of their days spent at Cedar Point. It even included some clips from old home videos.

The brothers have discussed the amusement park multiple times on their podcast, New Heights.

The Athletic reports that Kelce and JANA Partners now have a 9% stake in Six Flags Entertainment.

The New Heights podcast Instagram account suggested a "Kelce Coaster". And many fans jumped into the comments on Instagram to suggest a Taylor Swift-themed ride. One commenter suggested a ride called "Cruel Summer", while another quipped,

One of those Log Rides and it's called 'Redwood'.

What will Travis' involvement with the theme park be? That's not currently clear. But we can't wait to see what he can come up with in his wildest dreams...
