Jason Kelce is back to chugging beers once again, but this may be his most impressive performance to date.
I’m sure it comes as a surprise to absolutely no one that the 285lb offensive lineman can slug down some brews, but yesterday’s feat was no ordinary chug. To kickoff his own fundraiser on Wednesday, Kelce competed against local radio host James Seltzer in a beer chug competition where he killed his 30 ounce mug in 5.7 seconds.
The contest was part of Kelce’s 3rd Annual Beach Bash — a fundraiser he began in 2021 to help raise money for autism awareness. Despite Kelce’s winning performance, it wasn’t all perfection as it did take him a couple minutes to recuperate after the chug.
This isn’t the first time we’ve witnessed the All-Pro center down some booze. Earlier this year at the NFL Draft, Kelce celebrated with Eagles’ fans after selecting Jalen Carter in the first round.
The rest of Kelce’s Beach Bash was a success as well, raising over $150,000 for the Eagles’ Autism Foundation. Jason’s brother Travis Kelce also made an appearance at the event, competing against his brother in a Wawa hoagie making contest. Unlike last year’s Super Bowl, Jason was able to take home the victory over his younger brother. I think it’s safe to say Travis is happier with his ring.
As someone who despises both the Eagles and Chiefs, it’s hard to admit how likable the Kelce brothers are. I love to see superstar athletes give back to the community, but I like to see them pound brewskis even more. Luckily, yesterday we got both.
