Dude, it\u2019s just mobs of people standing outside the suite just taking selfies of Taylor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;That was different magnitude. You felt like everyone in the stadium was staring at you because you&#8217;re standing behind her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;I had conversations with her. Super dope, super humble. Down to earth. And it\u2019s all Kelce&#8217;s buddies from high school and home and they&#8217;re all super cool.
