“We are thrilled to partner with Patrick and Travis to help realize our collective vision with 1587 Prime,” said Mikey Tanha, co-founder of Noble 33. “This partnership represents a convergence of culinary artistry, athletic prowess, enrichment of the community. and unparalleled hospitality.”
Chiefs teammates dine out often, particularly at Prime Social in Kansas City, where Kelce's girlfriend, superstar musician Taylor Swift reportedly picked up the tab for anyone dining upstairs and on the roof during one of their dates.
The jury is still out on whether or not Kelce will pay all of his clients once he joins 1587.
