Travis Kelce warns Chiefs fans to stay away from Rocky Balboa statue in Philly | Rocky Statue Curse?

This week on the “New Heights” podcast, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce issued a request to fans of the team before the matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles to leave Philly’s iconic Rocky Balboa statue alone.

There is a reason behind it too!

“Chiefs fans. Do not touch the f***** Rocky memorial. Definitely don’t put an 87 on there.” ????

There is reportedly a curse.

“Chiefs [fans], do not touch the f—ing Rocky memorial, OK?” said Kelce. “Do not do that. Definitely don’t put an 87 [jersey] on there. Do not do that.”

The 49ers posted a photo of their team’s jersey on Rocky last week, and boom they lost. You can see they are not the only team to do it.

The curse of the Rocky Statue is REAL. The last 3 playoff teams to mess with him? Scored only 7 points against the @Eagles

The curse seems to be real, I hope the Chiefs fans listen.
